This animated short film tells the story of a child who is trying to save starfish washed ashore after a storm. Despite being told that his efforts won't make much of a difference due to the large number of starfish, the child insists that it makes a difference to each starfish he saves.

"What are you doing, kid?" "Just sending the starfish back to the sea. There was a storm last night, it must have washed them ashore. They must have been suffering all night. Time to send them home, I guess." "But kid, there's way too many of them. You can't send them all back home. It won't make much of a difference." "It makes a difference to that one." "No, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no."
