Kirsty Carrington’s life takes an unexpected turn when she encounters Moko, a dolphin separated from his pod. She dives into Moko’s world as he befriends locals with his playful antics. His mischievous nature soon stirs conflict with fishermen and boaters. As threats to his safety mount, Kirsty leads a team of protective 'Moko Minders', despite Department of Conservation concerns over their interactions with wildlife. Amy Taylor's documentary highlights the delicate balance between humans and the natural world. After debuting on TV3 in 2012, this expanded 63-minute cut played at the 2013 NZ Film Festival.
