Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Writer-director Joshua Moore’s heart-warming family film was based on a true story. An eccentric chicken farmer in Warrnambool, Australia, decides to use his trusted Maremma Sheepdog to protect a small penguin population on the nearby Middle Island from foxes. Despite skepticism and opposition from the local authorities, the conservation attempt proves to be an astounding success. ~ Rovi
