When a brave young seagull leaves her home on Spain's rugged coast to explore the world, she discovers that sometimes the greatest adventures happen when we least expect them.

After a fierce storm nearly ends her quest, she's rescued by José, a kind Portuguese fisherman, and his loyal water dog, Buba. What begins as a story of survival transforms into a beautiful tale of unlikely friendship, environmental stewardship, and finding family in unexpected places.
