Whale
T1051422226
An Arctic winter in Alaska - three Grey whales are trapped under a spreading ice-cap as they try to head south to Mexico. The whales' fate is highlighted in a local news splash, causing global waves that pit corporations against communities and bring American, Russian and Inuit people together in a united protest.
Whale cleverly weaves this true story with Inuit myths and legends, raising issues of individual, corporate and global responsibility and the power of community action when supported by the media.
