Free Willy

Free Willy

Willy is an orca whale confined in a Pacific Northwest aquatic park's too-small tank and separated from his family in the nearby bay. No one understands Willy's moods - except a 12-year-old boy who knows what it's like to be without a family. That boy is scruffy street kid Jesse, who befriends Willy and risks all to set him free.
