A group of intrepid dinosaurs embark on an epic journey into space Set in a prehistoric world where dinosaurs possess advanced technology, the story begins with the discovery of an ancient, mysterious artefact that hints at a galaxy beyond their own. Inspired by the potential for exploration and discovery, a brave and diverse team of dinosaur astronauts—dubbed the Dinonauts—are assembled for this daring mission.
​
Led by Trexx, a courageous T-Rex, the team includes Rufus, a quick-witted Gigantopithecus pilot; Zuk, a resourceful Stegosaurus engineer; and Toro, a stalwart Triceratops navigator. Together, they build their spaceship and set off on an interstellar adventure, encountering breathtaking planets, strange alien species, and unexpected challenges along the way.

Dinonauts is a tribute to 80s animation, including the work of Ralph Bakshi. The film was made over ten years in the garage of director Omar Distrakt Jones.
