When Marina tosses away the plastic wrapper from her sandwich, she never expects to see it again. But the ocean has other plans. Swept by the wind and carried by the waves, the wrapper disturbs sea creatures, including a shrimp who mistakes it for a UFO, before washing up on a beach--right at Marina's feet.
