THE SECOND MIA AND ME DVD 

“FRIENDS TO THE RESCUE” ARRIVES JULY 21

DVD Features Episodes Four, Five and Six



 Public Media Distribution, LLC announced that it is releasing three stories from the popular “Mia and me” series on the new DVD “FRIENDS TO THE RESCUE” on July 21, 2015. In the first three episodes of the series, featured on the DVD “Discover Centopia,” Mia learns about the threat to Centopia posed by Queen Panthea and she uncovers, along with Mo and Yuko, her elf friends, the power of the Trumptus. The Trumptus is a musical instrument that creates a sound that is unbearable to members of Panthea’s evil Munculus army and makes them burst into flowers. In the new DVD “ FRIENDS TO THE RESCUE,” featuring the next three episodes of the series, Mia, Mo and Yuko accidently lose the Trumptus and it falls into the clutches of Panthea – who orders its pieces be scattered throughout Centopia. Despite the troubling loss of the Trumptus, good news follows as Lyria, a unicorn, is having a baby. Upon the birth of Onchao, Mia and her friends celebrate the golden-horned unicorn’s ability to locate pieces of the Trumptus and restore dead lands conquered by Panthea.
“ FRIENDS TO THE RESCUE” SRP is $12.99 and the run time is approximately 75 minutes.
“Mia and Me” is an enchanting program which features live action and animation. Mia, a 12-year-old girl, attending a boarding school in Florence, Italy, used to read about the land of Centopia in an ancient book of myths. Now, thanks to a high-tech portal, she finds herself hurled into this wondrous and animated world of elves, unicorns, pans and dragons. But the once idyllic kingdom is embroiled in conflict. The evil Queen Panthea seeks to capture the unicorns and harness their power to keep herself young. As Mia bounces between trying to fit in at her new school, and her life as a fairytale elf, she becomes the key to saving Centopia.
The “ FRIENDS TO THE RESCUE” DVD includes the following stories:

“Trumptus Lost”

A scuffle with Violetta leaves Mia worried about having her secret exposed and Vincent frustrated with once again being left in the dark. In Centopia, the unusually grim oracle leads Mia to rescue Lyria in the Valley of Vapors, where she becomes lost – and in need of rescuing herself. Though Yuko and Mo find her in time, the invaluable Trumptus is left behind accidentally for Panthea to fulfill the oracle’s ominous prophecy.

“The Golden Son”

A quick-thinking Vincent helps Mia evade Violetta and her cronies, who are determined to get their hands on Mia’s mysterious book. Still unsure if she can trust Vincent with the truth, Mia disappears to Centopia in time to find Lyria in need of urgent help. With the help of the Water and Wind Unicorns, Mia and her friends are able to get Lyria the help she needs. Mia later witnesses an amazing event: the birth of a golden-horned unicorn who may be the key to restoring hope to Centopia.

“Onchao’s Oasis” 

On a field trip to a museum, Mia and Vincent avoid Paula, the latest of Violetta’s accomplices recruited to spy on Mia. When she finally escapes to Centopia, the excitement over Onchao’s ability to restore dead lands and to locate Trumptus pieces is short-lived when Lyria is taken captive by Gargona and her Munculus army. A newly determined Mia vows to protect Onchao with all her might and to find all of the pieces of the Trumptus so the safety of Centopia can be restored.

The first three episodes from season one of “Mia and me” are now available on the DVD “Discover Centopia.” Episodes four, five and six are on “ FRIENDS TO THE RESCUE.”
