„I wasn’t sure about this at first, because I thought maybe it was truly about a coconut and in a way, it is. But, it is more than that! It’s about the beautiful ocean and all the amazing creatures that live there. If you love ocean creatures, then you will enjoy watching this film. If you are expecting to learn a lot about coconuts, you will be disappointed. However, there is something to learn from the coconut’s journey. The creatures of the ocean are exceptionally appealing, particularly all the turtles, rays and sharks. It has amazing ocean scenes and children will enjoy seeing all the sea creatures. The film flows well and has a good ending which relates back to a beginning. I rate this short documentary 4 out of 5 stars. It is entertaining and educational. I give it 4 out of 5 stars and highly recommend it for the KIDS FIRST! Film Festival partners, especially any looking for short films about marine life and the environment.“
