When Abby realizes that the fish is under threat, she takes inspiration from her activist Mum, Dora, and takes on poachers to save her friend. There starts her life-long journey to save the world’s coral reefs.”
Ariel Donoghue and Ilsa Fogg also star in the film, which is being directed by Robert Connolly. He also adapted the screenplay from Booker Prize nominee Tim Winton’s novella of the same name. Connolly also previously worked with Bana on The Dry.
