Documentary Info:

“This controversial independent documentary takes a disturbing look into the

dark secrets of the multi-billion dollar aquarium industry and questions

human ethics in relationship to animals in entertainment. It is the tragic

and compelling life story of Lolita, a Killer Whale on display in Miami

Florida, documenting her 37 year existence.

 

Since that fateful day in 1970, waves of controversy have pounded both

shores of the US as freedom fighters from across the globe battle for her

liberation. It is a story of beauty, grace, passion, respect, exploitation,

greed, prejudice, and domination. Disturbing footage of marine mammal

captures and alarming interviews with former " Flipper " trainer Ric O'Barry,

marine mammal specialist Ken Balcomb, animal sociologist Howard Garrett,

animal advocate and President of Ocean Drive Magazine Jerry Powers, and

former whale hunter John Crowe.”
