Program Note

This wordless animation follows Sandy, a creature of the sand dunes, and Bo, a baby sea turtle accidentally dropped by a flock of seagulls. At first, Sandy wants nothing to do with the unwelcome visitor but soon finds herself on a long journey to return Bo to the sea. Along the way, the two come to understand each other, forging a bond that speaks quietly and warmly to the experience of finding one's place in the world.
