Free Willy Story : Keiko's Journey Home

A captive since the age of two, an Orca whale named Keiko, now almost twenty years old, is lifted from the pool at a Mexican amusement park. He is being moved towards the carrier that will be flown to Oregon for his first stop towards a new and healthy life in the wilds of Iceland where he was born. He is the whale that appeared in a feature movie, Free Willy, about a whale set free by a young boy. What we see is a real world experience and the incredible work of many people. All of their efforts have come down to this evening as Keiko moves through the evening sky.
