Mike Kingsley, a sheltered young boy, lives in a remote coastal region of Australia with his reclusive fisherman father, Tom . When a group of hunters kills a majestic pelican and orphans its young on the beach, Mike convinces his father to let him raise the chicks to adulthood. Soon after, Mike befriends Fingerbone Bill, a wise and mysterious Aborigine who dubs the young bird-lover ''Storm Boy'' and offers him a few life lessons.
