About the Story
Deep in the Peruvian jungle, Dora (Madelyn Miranda), daughter of jungle explorers Cole (Michael Peña) and Elena (Eva Longoria), spends her days going on adventures with her monkey friend Boots (voiced by Danny Trejo), her cousin Diego (Malachi Barton), and imaginary friends Backpack (voiced by Sasha Toro) and Map (voiced by Marc Weiner) while thwarting Swiper (voiced by Benicio del Toro) the thieving fox. 7-year-old Diego and his family leave to Los Angeles while 6-year-old Dora and her parents remain searching for the hidden Inca city of gold Parapata.
After 10 years of exploring, Dora’s parents decipher the location of Parapata and choose to send Dora (Isabela Moner) to Diego’s high school in Los Angeles while they travel to the lost city. Staying with Diego (Jeff Wahlberg) and his family, Dora meets fellow students Sammy (Madeleine Madden) and Randy (Nicholas Coombe), but Diego considers her an embarrassment.
On a class field trip to a museum, Dora and the others are lured to its off-exhibit archives, where they are captured by mercenaries led by Powell (Temuera Morrison) who fly them to Peru. When they land, a man named Alejandro (Eugenio Derbez), who claims to be a friend of Dora’s parents, helps them escape. In the process, the mercenaries, aided by Swiper, steal Dora’s map. Alejandro reports that Dora’s parents have gone missing and that the mercenaries are searching for them in hopes of getting into Parapata and stealing its treasures. Dora resolves to find her parents first with Alejandro’s help, while the other teens come along in hopes of being rescued.
The group travels through numerous obstacles, including quicksand, Inca ruin puzzles, and attacks from forest guards of Parapata. After numerous hazards, Dora reaches her parents just outside the borders of Parapata, but Alejandro reveals he was the mercenaries leader all along and captures them. The other teens are caught as well, but Boots helps them escape. With Dora’s parents still prisoners, the teens decide to find the way inside Parapata in hopes of acquiring treasure that they can use to bargain for Elena and Cole’s release.
Inside the hidden city, Dora and the others solve its temple’s puzzles and dodge its traps, bringing them to the central shrine. Alejandro secretly follows them and attempts to steal its central idol himself, but instead falls into a trap. The soldiers guarding Parapata, led by their queen (Q’orianka Kilcher), defeat the mercenaries, and confront the teens. Dora speaks to them in Quechua, assuring that the kids only came for her parents and to learn. The Inca permit the teens and Dora’s family to leave, allowing them a glimpse of their greatest treasure.
