Summary:The films likens the oceans to a highway that connect people, culture and communities. New initiatives have been taken to build bridges of co-operation based on historical ties. The Indian Ocean forms the eastern boundary of the African continent reaching towards the Middle East, washing up to the shores of the Indian subcontinent, and further linking up with the South China Sea. The Indian Ocean is the lifeline of the world's trade and economy and has been so for many decades. The film explores its role in connecting diverse culture and tradition and exchanging technology and ideas. The present day situation of the shores and the ocean is further explored in relation to trade and commerce, and the formation of the Indian Ocean Rim Association for regional co-operation.
