Synopsis: Along the northern California coast the once-abundant red abalone, now nearing extinction, has become a looming crisis. Steve, an avid abalone diver, bears witness to dwindling populations, while Shoshoni, a Yurok ceremonial dressmaker, confronts the scarcity of abalone shells vital to her art and cultural heritage. Connected by this shared loss, Steve and Shoshoni bridge cultural differences and join forces with a plan. Their stories raise awareness about the critical decline of marine ecosystems, the threats of climate change, and our humanity’s deep and ancient connection to the ocean.
