A live-action adventure that blends coming-of-age romance with jungle action, balancing Mowgli's feral origins against civilization and love.

Raised by wild animals since childhood, Mowgli is drawn away from the jungle by the beautiful Kitty. But Mowgli must eventually face corrupt Capt. Boone, who wants both Kitty's hand and the treasures of Monkey City – a place only Mowgli can find.
