Richard Scarry meets Finding Nemo in an energetic environmental adventure set in a Jacques Costeau-inspired world.

Seasoned Captain Cody, a seagull, explores the hidden corners of the ocean on his trusted little ship, Lindy Hop, with his friends Vince and James in tow. Early on in their journey a friendly dolphin pack introduces them to Tautou, a monkey who has lost his home island to rising sea levels.

During their oceanic adventure the group helps gather up trash from a beach and cleans up an oil spill. Finally they journey deep underneath the surface of the water to explore a rich underwater world. Here they meet the grandest creature in the animal kingdom: the blue whale.
