Conference Film Evenings
The documentaries below have been generously donated for screening at conference film evenings:
| Breach
When filmmaker Jonny Zwick learned that endangered Fin whales and Minke whales were being slaughtered for commercial gain in Iceland, he quit his job and moved to Reykjavik for three months to film this archaic practice. Narrated by Billy Baldwin, BREACH is the first feature documentary on Iceland’s controversial whaling industry. The film exposes the country’s defiant and illegal participation in commercial whale hunting against a backdrop of worldwide debates, international tourism, fierce nationalism, and political intrigue. Courtesy: Jonny Zwick In addition to being screening at the conference film evenings, Breach will be aired on the People’s Weather channel as part of A Whale of a Time. |

| Inside The Tanks
Inside The Tanks, focuses on what life is like for whales and dolphins in European marine parks, by visiting Marineland, in the South of France. The documentary is sure to enrich the discussion surrounding captivity, with it’s unique approach, as Presenter and Producer, Jonny Meah, blasts the topic wide open, giving ALL sides of the debate a chance to have their say, with in depth interviews from The Born Free Foundation; Marine Biologist, Ingrid Visser; former Marineland Supervisor, John Hargrove; and in a world exclusive on the topic, an interview with The Zoological Director of Marineland Antibes, Jon Kershaw.

| Operation Jeedara
In August 2016, as part of the Great Australian Bight Alliance, Sea Shepherd sent their flagship vessel, the MY Steve Irwin deep into the Great Australian Bight. It was an expedition to showcase the beauty of the region that would be lost if BP were allowed to drill for oil there and create a spill of similar or lesser size than their devastating spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010. Courtesy: Jeff Hansen, Managing Director, Sea Shepherd Australia https://www.seashepherdglobal.org In addition to being screening at the conference film evenings, Jeedara will be aired on the People’s Weather channel as part of A Whale of a Time. |

| Souls Of The Vermillion Sea
Souls of the Vermilion Sea is a feature length documentary film about the struggle to save the world’s most endangered marine mammal, the vaquita. The vaquita is found only in the Northern Gulf of California (also known as the Vermilion Sea), and has been in decline since it was discovered in the late 1950s. Today fewer than 100 individuals remain, but there is a dedicated group of researchers and conservationists who have committed their careers to bringing this species back from the brink of extinction. Courtesy: Matthew Podolsky, WildLens https://www.facebook.com/SoulsoftheVermilionSea/ In addition to being screening at the conference film evenings, Souls Of The Vermillion Sea will be aired on the People’s Weather channel as part of A Whale of a Time. |
