    • Synopsis
    • Yakari, protected by Great Eagle, his totem, who gave him the fabulous power to talk to animals, lives happily
      in the land of the Sioux. He gallops with his friend, the wild mustang Little Thunder, and plays with two
      friends his own age, Rainbow and Buffalo-Seed. Yakari proudly wears his feather of bravery, proof of the
      tribe‘s respect for him. But such honor makes one jealous: Buffalo-Seed, breaking their oath of friendship,
      defies authority and puts himself in great danger by attempting to capture a bison on his own. Seriously
      wounded, he plunges into a deep coma from which the shaman says he will never awaken. Determined to
      save him, Yakari and Rainbow investigate, only to discover that Buffalo-Seed also has a totem: the giant
      bison Thathanka! Thathanka may have the power to bring their friend back to life, but the totem refuses
      to appear.
