Paddington was raised in the Peruvian jungle by uncles Pastuzo and Luzy, but an earthquake ends up separating the trio. In view of this, the little bear is sent by his aunt to London, where an explorer who visited Peru decades ago lives. Paddington makes the trip clandestinely and, upon arrival, ends up at a train station. There he meets the Brown family, who decide to help him find the explorer. But life in civilization and among humans is not that simple.
