Shorty and the Legend of the Enchanted Reef
Sinopsis
"An endangered ocean — three friends on a mission — the answer is in the stars." When their home reef is destroyed by a fishing trawler, three fish — energetic Shorty, his smart sister Indigo, and daring sawfish Jake — set out on a quest across the polluted ocean to find the mythical "Enchanted Reef." Tagline: "An environmentally friendly adventure!"
