Does Moses’ sister, hiding nearby, appear in that image? Perhaps not; I can’t find her.
 
That video is remarkable in its conciseness and production quality.

I should imagine she is the little girl who is running .

The princess felt kind toward the little one, and loved it at once. She said: “This is one of the Hebrews’ children.” You have heard how the children of Israel came to be called Hebrews. Pharaoh’s daughter thought that it would be cruel to let such a lovely baby as this die out on the water. And just then a little girl came running up to her, as if by accident, and she looked at the baby also, and she said: “Shall I go and find some woman of the Hebrews to be a nurse to the child for you and take care of it?”

“Yes,” said the princess. “Go and find a nurse for me.”

The little girl – who was Miriam, the baby’s sister – ran as quickly as she could

" “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty.” Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”" (Isaiah 6)

That looks terrifying to me. But, I’m also icthyophobic, to some extent. And that looks like a fish to me. (Some translations say a “great fish”). Then again, I guess, given the content of the book, it should be.
