Plot

The Story of the Faithful Wookiee is the animated cartoon from The Star Wars Holiday Special, first broadcast in November 1978. Chewbacca and C-3PO are on a Rebel supply run when their ship is damaged and they crash on a hostile planet.

Sinekatalog’s take

An animated segment from a famous holiday television special, with Chewbacca and C-3PO stranded on a hostile planet. A curiosity for devoted fans of the franchise rather than a stand-alone treat.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
