Based loosely on a true story, this follows the outback antics of television weatherman “Chris” (Ryan Corr). He had been moaning to his producer “Liz” (Brooke Satchwell) that his was a dead-end job, so she suggested that he prove his worth. That opportunity presents itself when he rescues a baby dolphin caught in the shallows of Bondi Beach. That's a short-lived success though when the thing is duly found washed up…
