reveals the shocking truth behind

With the help of Ric O’Barry, former trainer of the famous dolphin Flipper, the makers of The Cove go undercover to reveal the dark truth behind Japan’s dolphin hunting practices.

“They said if the world finds out what’s going on here, we’ll be shut down…”

In Taiji, Wakayama, Japan, dolphins are being brutally slaughtered and others captured to be shipped to entertainment parks across the globe.

Many people, include the Japanese population, didn’t realise what was occurring. There were many protests and attempts to block the documentary from being screened, particularly in Japan, after it was released.

It carries a powerful message that will linger with you long after the film is over.
