DEF: TURTLE WALKER

A Turtle Walker  travels across long distances of wild and uncertain coastlines on foot, in the hopes of spotting a turtle. They often embark on these strenuous walks with very little guarantee of reward.

Yet their zeal for discovery is what allows them to thrive in their search for these creatures. It is this passion that binds together the stories of turtle walkers across generations.

Turtle Walker (2024) ‘DOC NYC’ Movie Review:

Taira Malaney’s “Turtle Walker” (2024) revolves around Satish Bhaskar, an Indian biologist who devoted his life to preserving sea turtles. Although a biographical tale based on Bhaskar’s life, director Malaney treats his story like a fantasy adventure tale. From the get-go, it looks like a Ghibli film where refreshing colors grab your attention through neatly-composed frames. The sand appears in the prettiest tones of ochre while the sky and the ocean bring out tones of aquamarine almost with a pastel-like softness on a paper sheet. On top of that, it puts its two central subjects – a man and a turtle. So, it is near-impossible for it not to remind you of Michaël Dudok de Wit’s “The Red Turtle.”

PalCinema Review: Turtle Walker

Turtle Walker is a new documentary from Taira Malaney who focuses on the fascinating career of Satish Bhaskar, a man from India who spent nineteen years exploring the country’s coastlines to study sea turtles.  His work helped to protect the species that has been exploited for its eggs, flesh, and shell.  Knowing absolutely nothing about sea turtles myself I found this to be a very enlightening and inspiring piece of work.

Turtle Walker’ Film on Indian Sea Turtle Conservationist World Premiere at Doc NYC

For the past 7 years, I have been working on a feature documentary called Turtle Walker. This is the story of Indian sea turtle conservationist Satish Bhaskar, who walked two-thirds of the country’s coastlines in the late 1970s, to discover and protect endangered sea turtles and their habitats. It is a story of deep wonder for the marine environment, and how one person’s singlehanded efforts sparked a movement and legacy for sea turtle conservation in the country.

SATISH ‘BATAGUR’ BHASKAR

Excerpt: “In 1982, Satish left his young wife and three month old daughter, Nyla to maroon himself on Suheli for the whole
monsoon, from May to September. It meant making elaborate preparations, like calculating the amount of food he would need.
We sat with Satish and talked about things that could go wrong during this isolation – chronic toothache, appen- dicitis, malaria
were just a few sobering thoughts. The Coast Guard provided some signal flares and there was talk of a two-way radio but
eventually Satish just set sail and that’s the last we heard of him till September.”

“THE STORY OF AN UNSUNG MARINE SUPERSTAR”

Published in The Times of India; February 2016
Excerpt: “A few months later, his wife Brenda back in Madras, received a loving letter from him. He had launched his message in a bottle on July 3rd and 24 days and more than 800 km later it was picked up by a Sri Lankan fisherman, Anthony Damacious, who very kindly posted it to Brenda along with a covering letter, a family picture and an invitation to visit him in Sri Lanka.”

“FROM SOUP TO SUPERSTAR – THE STORY OF SEA TURTLE CONSERVATION ALONG THE INDIAN COAST”

Published by Mongabay: News and Inspiration from Nature’s Frontline Written by Shreya Dasgupta, May 2016
Excerpt: “Satish is spending 5 months on Suheli [remote islands in the Lakshadweep Archipelago off the southwestern coast of India] on his own and reached the island in early May. His wife has had one letter from him; found in a bottle by a Sri Lanka fisherman who forward- ed it to her. Tracing its course we find that the ‘bottle-letter’ dated 3rd July has travelled a distance of about 500 miles in an estimated interval of 24 days. The letter reached Sri Lanka around 27th July.”
