Meerkats have been brought to the forefront of the public's mind in recent months thanks to Alexandr Orlov, founder of comparethemeerkat.com. But this film isn't a biopic, sadly.
Film maker James Honeyborne sees a resemblance between the family life of the meerkat and our own human experience, and centres around pup Kolo, who "develops from being a little pup who, like all youngsters, is rather self-centered and very focused on getting to grips with the world and being quite an individual, through to realising he needs his family and needs to be part of that group and that his family need him."
It was released in cinemas last Friday. I'm waiting on Alexandr's review.

Sounds like it could be been "Alexandr Before He Was Famous" - Like you I hope he reviews it!
