Mumble is born among a colony of Emperor penguins in Antarctica, where each chick is expected to learn a unique tap dance to attract a mate.
Unlike his peers, Mumble is unable to sing the traditional mating call, causing disappointment among the elders and his peers.
Mumble reveals his unique talent of tap dancing, which is initially rejected by the colony but eventually catches attention.
Mumble forms a friendship and later a romantic interest with Gloria, a fellow penguin who appreciates his dancing.
The penguin colony suffers from a shortage of fish; humans with fishing boats and a fisherman named Lovelace the rockhopper penguin indirectly threaten the penguins by overfishing and pollution.
Facing rejection and blame for the colony's troubles, Mumble sets out on a journey to find the source of the fish shortage and prove his worth.
Mumble meets Lovelace, a rockhopper penguin who helps him understand human impact on the environment and the importance of their actions.
Mumble communicates indirectly with humans by disrupting their operations, leading to awareness and eventual action to help the penguins.
Mumble returns home and is finally accepted by the colony for his unique talent and bravery, uniting the penguins.
