Based on the groundbreaking show Meerkat Manor, which followed the lives of a family of Meerkats living in the Kalahari desert, this film pays tribute to Flower, the matriarch of the family on the series. Just as on the show, the movie combines traditional nature footage with dramatic narration, telling Flower's story from her birth, up until the time of her tragically early death. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide
