 Tagline: Some pigeons eat crumbs, others make history.
During World War II, England communicated with the French Resistance and Allied troops in Europe using the Royal Pigeon Service, using carrier pigeons that went through a rigorous training regimen.
This is the story of Valiant, a comically clumsy misfit of a (wood) pigeon who sneaks his way into the Royal Pigeon Service, eager to contribute his efforts to the needs of his country, even though he is vastly unqualified to do so. Immediately given an assignment, Valiant's job turns out to be one of the most important of the war... carrying essential messages from the French to the Allied forces who are about to storm the beaches of Normandy on D-Day.
“Valiant,” an exciting new computer-animated film presented by Walt Disney Pictures, from Vanguard Animation, and producer John Williams (“Shrek” and “Shrek 2”), is the high-flying comedy adventure tale of a brave-but-undersized pigeon named Valiant (voiced by Ewan McGregor) who dreams of joining the elite Royal Homing Pigeon Service (RHPS), and serving crown and country during World War II.
