Recap
14-year-old Julieta lives on the Caribbean island of Curaçao and prefers to spend her time underwater rather than on land. The wonderful, exciting world of the ocean feels like home to Julieta. The more time Julieta spends under water, the more she is confronted with large amounts of waste on the seabed and that makes her extremely mad. Together with other volunteers on Curaçao, Julieta rescues sea turtles in need and tries to improve their habitat.
