Synopsis

Adopted by his grandmother, Madame Souza, Champion is a lonely little boy.  Noticing that this lad is never happier than on a bicycle, Madame Souza puts him through a rigorous training process. Years go by and Champion becomes worthy of his name.  Now he is ready to enter the world-famous cycling race, the Tour de France.  However, during this cycling contest two mysterious, square-shouldered henchmen kidnap Champion. 


Madame Souza and her faithful dog Bruno set out to rescue him.  Their quest takes them across the ocean to the teeming metropolis of Belleville where they encounter the renowned "Triplets of Belleville," three eccentric female music-hall divas from the 30's who decide to take Madame Souza and Bruno under their wing.  Thanks to Bruno’s brilliant sense of smell, the motley sleuths are soon on to Champion’s trail, following the clues to an underground betting parlor…now the chase is on!
