After a spoken introduction describing the various musical instruments used, the film tells the story of Kimba the White Lion, from his birth, to his escape from a ship intended to take him far from home. The story is told entirely without dialogue, and showcases a symphonic tome poem composed by Isao Tomita, based in incidental music he composed for the original television series "Jangaru taitei" (1965).

Based on: "Rakuen" (novel) by Kôji Suzuki In prehistoric Mongolia lived a couple-Bogdo and Fayau. Their happy life is torn apart when Fayau is abducted by an invading tribe.
