In “Paddington in Peru,” Paddington Bear returns to his roots in an adventure that takes him back to the country where he was born. After receiving a mysterious letter from his Aunt Lucy, Paddington learns that she is in trouble. The beloved bear immediately sets off on a journey from London to Peru, accompanied by the Brown family, who refuse to let him go alone.
The group embarks on a colorful and treacherous journey through the Amazon rainforest and the Andes mountains. Along the way, Paddington finds himself involved in several misadventures, including losing his marmalade sandwiches, encountering mischievous wildlife, and accidentally disrupting an ancient festival in a local village. Yet, his good nature and charm win over everyone he meets.
When Paddington finally reaches Aunt Lucy’s home, he discovers that she has been kidnapped by a group of treasure hunters seeking a legendary lost Incan treasure. The treasure hunters believe Aunt Lucy knows its whereabouts and are using her as leverage. Paddington teams up with local guides and animals from the jungle, including a talkative parrot and a fearless alpaca, to rescue her.
The final act sees Paddington and the Browns facing off against the treasure hunters deep inside an ancient Incan temple, filled with traps and treasures. Through clever problem-solving, kindness, and a bit of clumsiness, Paddington outwits the villains, rescues Aunt Lucy, and even finds the lost treasure — which he happily leaves for the Peruvian people.
The film ends with a heartwarming reunion between Paddington and Aunt Lucy, as they sit together watching the sunset over the mountains, sharing a jar of marmalade, surrounded by their new friends from Peru.
