SYNOPSIS
\nWhen eleven year old Kirra\u2019s father, a widowed zoo veterinarian, is hospitalised for several months she is sent to live with her estranged grandfather, Gus, in South Africa. He owns a dilapidated seaside theme park, which is quickly losing its customers to rival park owner Rolf. Business is given a miraculous boost though when a fierce storm traps a baby orca in Gus\u2019 lagoon, making his park the area\u2019s main attraction. The growing orca, named Willy, has an inhibited sense of echolocation making his survival in the wild impossible, but Kirra also knows that the orca will outgrow his la goon very quickly. Gus thinks his only choice is to sell Willy to Rolf\u2019s park where he will be captive but safe. With little time left before Rolf claims him, Kirra must find a way for Willy to survive with his pod in the open sea. <\/p>\n
