The Land Before Time (69 min)

Synopsis: Littlefoot is a young brontosaurus (or “longneck”) who lived during a time when dinosaurs roamed a land threatened by earth-quakes and volcanoes. When a large “Sharptooth” (Tyrannosaurus) kills Littlefoot’s mother and an earth-quake separates him from his family, Littlefoot sets off in search of the legendary Great Valley, a land of lush vegetation where dinosaurs can thrive and live in peace. Along the way, he meets four other young dinosaurs: a “three-horn” (Triceratops) named Cera, a “bigmouth” (Saurolophus) named Ducky, a “flyer” (Pteranodon) named Petrie, and a “spiketail” (Stegosaurus) named Spike. During their amazing journey, they encounter incredible adventures, overwhelming obstacles and unforgettable lessons about life and sticking together.
