I don't know Sean, most probably it was composed just for this video, which I liked. It sounds easy to write down/learn by ear though, you can try that, if you can ignore the narrator.

I can tell it's in D minor for starters, 3/4 measure. Starts with a D minor accompaniment on the left hand and then the first two notes in the melody from 0:03 is an A, then G - Bflat, landing in a E diminished chord. I stopped there because I need to sleep, I'll continue tomorrow if I remember.

This is a piece by one of my favorite minimalist composers, Yann Tiersen.

The piece is "Naval" from the "Tabarly" soundtrack to the documentary film.

Here is a Spotify link:

And a YouTube link:

If you like this piece/soundtrack, I would suggest also listening to his much more famous "Amélie" (Original French title: Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain soundtrack:

This album contains the famous (and probably still my favorite Tiersen piece so far), "Comptine d'un autre ete L'apres midi":

The film itself is very good and definitely worth watching for the soundtrack alone, in my opinion.

Enjoy.
