Action & AdventureAnimation

In a seaside town in England, young Jim Hawkins keeps the Admiral Benbow Inn together with his mother. His adventure begins the moment a map to Treasure Island falls into his hands. Setting sail after the treasure with Dr. Livesey and the others, what awaits him is the harsh law of the sea, a band of merry seafaring men like John Silver — and betrayal. Through the struggle against the pirates who had slipped aboard disguised as crewmen, Jim comes to learn how very differently these men live their lives: Silver, Gray, and the rest.
