About this movie

In May 2014, National Geographic “ocean hero” Jon Bowermaster organized a learn-to-swim camp in the Maldives to teach 50 third graders and 20 of their burka-clad mothers how to swim. In a place more threatened by global climate change and rising sea levels than almost anywhere on the planet, it is particularly important that its residents understand what is at risk. Diving into the ocean is a big first step!
