While diving, she discovers an ancient brass and gold statue of a boy riding a dolphin, which is said to have the magical power to grant wishes.

"Interesting movie with a Greek setting and compelling cast. The story is actually an important one of how #antiquities are looted from home countries. It pits poor inhabitants against an archeologist as manipulated by a profiteer. Good #intrigue and #drama with Mediterranean settings and some underwater scenes. Offers a bit of their #culture in #music and #dance. Along with views of historical ruins. With a touch of #romance. "
