Synopsis

edit

Cinta Kura-Kura is a romantic comedy that tells the tale of Nani, a bubbly 21-year-old girl, and her unique pet turtle, Nico. Nico is unique as he is a rare Green Crown Sea Turtle… but more importantly, Nico has the ability to talk to humans, if he so chooses to do so.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14]

Nani has recently moved in with her younger brother, Amin, and seems to be falling for the budding musician neighbour, Adam. Disturbed by this budding romance, Nico does everything possible to sabotage Adam's efforts to woo Nani. A love triangle develops when Nico's favourite pet shop supervisor, Fadzly tries to get close to Nani. However unbeknownst to all, his intentions are far from honourable as his actions are motivated by his goal to capture and sell Nico to an exotic food restaurant. This hilarious flick features cutting edge character animation with the lively Nico, coupled with a strong dose of witty comedy and dialogue, creating a fun, cheeky romantic comedy that will appeal to the young and young-at-heart.[15] [16][17][18][19]
