Many of hispanics grew up celebrating "El Dia del Nino (Kids Day)" so what better date to release one of the most anticipated animated films of the year "El Americano: The Movie," the first Hispanic themed animated 3D film completed in Mexico, directed by Mexican director Ricardo Arnaiz, specifically for the U.S. market.
Cuco is a Mexican young parrot that would rather imitate the crazy stunts of his TV super-parrot hero, EL AMERICANO, than help with his chores at the family circus. Yet when a gang of bully birds threatens his ringmaster father and takes over the circus, Cuco sets off on a hilarious and perilous journey to Hollywood to enlist his hero in his fight, only to discover the true hero within himself.
