A most short video to be watched on a wet friday afternoon.. Enjoy :)

Tilikum & Keiko fell into captivity at the age of 2.
Keiko returned home to freedom eventually where he belongs when free willy became such a big hit even years after the movie was screened.
Would the story of Tilly be known worldwide too. Can we make Tilly and all of his kind in captivity now the last Willy.
