the Pacific Ocean, homeland of Awaceb's co-founders. Inspiration
was taken from the rich and varied local landscapes, cultures,
music, languages, folklores and traditions and was used to create a
fictional world and to tell a universal story for all to understand
and enjoy. The characters are voiced by local talent in traditional
languages, and subtitled in many languages including English,
French, Russian, Chinese, German, and more.
