When her old, lame father Fa Zhou (voice by
Soon-Tek Oh) is called upon by the emperor to fight with the Imperial army against the invading Huns, his teenage daughter Fa Mulan (voice by
Ming-Na Wen), fearing for her father's life, secretly takes his place...disguised as a boy. Accompanied for protection by the tiny, demoted dragon Mushu (voice by
Eddie Murphy) and the cricket Cri-Kee (voice by
Frank Welker) for luck, Mulan seeks to become a model soldier without revealing her true gender.
