A seemingly plain clay pot magically transports Cucha, a selfish and lonely girl, from her town of Zapotoco, Mexico, to a mysterious jungle filled with
eccentric characters. Using her knowledge of English and Spanish, Cucha encounters Parrot Rivera, a jungle muralist who
paints the future; Señor Chapulin,
a soccer star with the heart of the present; and Burro Burrito, a farmer who
plows the past. But the evil Monkey King and his silly Sidekick know the clay
pot is really a magical piñata and scheme to steal it from her. Through Cucha's journey, she discovers the magic of the mundane,
the roots of cultural pride and the power of sharing.
