Mufasa, the king of the lions, proudly presents his newborn son and heir Simba to his kingdom. He teaches the young cub all about the ‘Circle of Life’, the balance which connects everything, as it will one day be his task to maintain this balance as the future king. However, Mufasa’s brother Scar is jealous and wants to take the throne for himself. With the help of three devious hyenas, he manages to kill Mufasa and chase Simba away, making him believe he is responsible for his father’s death.
He assumes that the little cub will die all alone in the desert. But Simba is lucky. The meerkat Timon and the warthog Pumbaa find him and bring him to an oasis where they teach him their philosophy: ‘Hakuna Matata’’ (no worries). And so he grows up happily until one day he coincidentally bumps into his childhood friend Nala. She has come from Scar’s merciless kingdom to seek help, and begs him to come back and take his rightful place as king.
Simba initially says no, but eventually Mufasa’s spirit and his old friend Rafiki find him and manage to persuade him. He returns to his old homeland, which in the meantime has transformed from a blossoming paradise into a cold and dead landscape under Scar’s rule. He challenges his uncle and a bitter fight for the throne ensues.
The animation was highly praised by many critics. The film deals with several serious topics such as death and finding one's own life path, which makes it interesting not only for children but also for adults. The characters are well-developed and convey important values such as honesty, courage and friendship. The film’s philosophy is also very valuable: life is a circle and everything is connected. That’s why it's not surprising that Disney's masterpiece and the associated The Lion King's fan products are so popular! In the EMP Online Shop, you can find all the best merch for true fans.
