Green Sea Turtle
The first episode of The Riddle Solvers, in which two siblings must solve a mysterious riddle about the ocean, with help from sea turtles, tide pool animals, frogs and a singing pirate.  Filmed over two years, the film uses vivid wildlife footage (both underwater and on land) and original music to show how life on earth is connected by moving water.
