- Synopsis
- Narrated by Pierce Brosnan, this wonderfully entertaining 3D family theatrical feature film takes you on an awe-inspiring journey to a magical coral island. For the first time, the captivating stories of Aldabra will be told by the island's inhabitants themselves—the heroes of the movie: Elvi the Giant Tortoise, Buster the Robber Crab, Coastguards the Blacktip Sharks, Snooper the Wingless Rail, and many more.
  
  Prepare for a journey you will never forget! Watch as giant land tortoises swim for their lives through shark-infested waters, while turtle hatchlings make a daring dash for the open sea. You will see the world's largest terrestrial crabs scale palm trees to harvest coconuts, and flightless birds that still share the extinct dodo's belief that they have no predators, bullying the locals instead.
  
  Set on the world’s second-largest coral atoll, the film captures the vibrant ecosystem as it existed 5,000 years ago, before it disappeared beneath the waves—a fate it has faced multiple times throughout history. This unforgettable journey showcases the beauty and resilience of nature, leaving audiences mesmerized.
