Seven-year-old twins Dodo and Didi look nothing alike and can't stand each other. For example, Didi only eats healthy food, while Dodo is crazy about sweets, which gives him a terrible toothache and almost ruins the family trip to Stockholm. At the airport, a nearsighted employee mistakes chubby Dodo for a guinea pig and sends him to the cargo hold of the plane. Nobody notices that at the same time, a cold-blooded villain sneaks in, planning to kidnap and cook the last living tiger on Earth...
Could a regular boy (Dodo), a regular girl (Didi), a beautiful cat, a chatty parrot, a magical dwarf, and a few puppies save the last tiger?
