Rio is a little 'bagatelle' about the macaw 'Blu', a domesticated bird being confronted with his native Brasil, more or less involuntary.
This because a researcher/specialist in birds - dr Barbosa - finds him in the book store in Minnesota, where the owner Linda, works and where he resides as the 'book-bird' and friend of Linda.
One of 'Blu's' problems is that he can't fly. Not a small problem for a bird, supposed to fly.
He is though convinced to follow Linda and dr Barbosa to Rio de Janeiro, in order to save his species.
Just as he once was captured and brought to the USA, he is now captured, not only by the female macaw with whome he is supposed to couple but also by unscrupulous bird hunters.
From now on he experiences the adventure of his life but as this is a film for children, all ends well.
In the 'role'/voice as Blue we find Jesse Eisenberg.
