''Adventures in Zambezia'' (Also known simply as ''Zambezia'') is a 2012 English-language UsefulNotes/{{South Africa}}n computer animated film focusing on a young Peregrine Falcon named Kai (Jeremy Suarez) who lives in a desert with his father, Tendai (Creator/SamuelLJackson) after the death of his mother. It was produced by Creator/TriggerfishAnimationStudios.
After a visit from Gogo (Creator/JeniferLewis) and Tini (Creator/TaniaGunadi) who are attacked by a pair of Marabous, Kai decided to follow them to Zambezia, a bustling bird city near the edge of Victoria Falls. Meanwhile, Tendai comes across an {{evil plan}} by Budzo ([[Creator/JimCummings1952 Jim Cummings]]) to eat all the eggs in Zambezia, only to get captured in the process. Kai must now work with Zambezia's resident air force, the Hurricanes, to protect Zambezia from Budzo and the Marabous.

!!Tropes in Zambezia:
* AssShove: In the beginning Kai flies into a giraffe's butt. [[BlackComedy Cue it later contorting in abdominal pain]].
* AttackOfTheTownFestival: The Marabous capture the Weavers under the orders of Budzo during the annual festival they have.
* BadassInDistress: The Hurricanes wind up being caught in a net near the end of the film.
* BigBad: Budzo, the monitor lizard who plans to eat all of the eggs in Zambezia.
* CaptainCrash: Gogo the stork is very clumsy when it comes to landing.
* ChildEater: Budzo enjoys eating defenseless bird eggs, much to his twisted amusement.
* DancePartyEnding
* DrillSergeantNasty: Ajax, the Commander of the Hurricanes.
* EvilEggEater: Budzo, the main villain, is a [[MaliciousMonitorLizard MaliciousMonitorLizard]] who wishes to eat all of the eggs in Zambezia.
* FantasticRacism: When founding Zambezia, marabous were excluded from the city due to their ugly looks and poor manners. When they pull a HeelFaceTurn and help save the city, they are welcome in there, but some of the birds still don't trust them.
* GossipyHens: The duo of female touracos who spend most of their time gossiping while getting their feathers dyed are almost literal examples.
* HandicappedBadass: Sekhuru, the chief of Zambezia, is missing his right wing after Budzo attacked him.
* HeelFaceTurn: The Marabous pull this off once Budzo betrays them.
* HeroicBSOD: Once Kai is discharged from the Hurricanes, he decides to leave Zambezia, until Gogo brings him to Sekhuru's office.
* MissingMom: Kai's mother, Amaya was killed by Budzo before the events of the movie.
* RaceLift: Well, kind of. Ezee is given a stereotypical Jewish accent and mannerisms in Russian dub, because his name sounds like the stock one used in many jokes about Jews. That makes his character even funnier.
* ReptilesAreAbhorrent: The main villain is a Rock Monitor.
* ScavengersAreScum: Marabou storks are ever-hungry marauders who are excluded from Zambezia and conspire with Budzo. They pull a HeelFaceTurn at the end of the movie, though.
* WhamLine: The revelation of what happened to Kai's mother.
-->'''Kai:''' What happened to her?\\
''(SmashCut to Tendai in the cage)''\\
'''Budzo:''' ''[[EvilLaugh (Laughs evilly)]]''\\
'''Tendai:''' Murderer! She was my wife!
* WhamShot: Kai discovers that Budzo is missing a claw from his right front foot.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: Budzo betrays the Marabous once they've placed the bridge to Zambezia which allows him to get to Zambezia, and brings a massive army of monitor lizards with him to devour his former allies.
