A MUST SEE FILM! 
THE COVEIt is best described as a wildlife documentary come ‘Bourne Identity' type action-packed motion picture. It screened exclusively for the New Zealand International Film Festival but due to popular demand, the film screens in cinemas nationwide from 27 August. The Cove polarises the horrific consequences of capturing dolphins to populate the world's dolphinariums. Filmmakers make the shocking discovery that surplus dolphins are slaughtered and their meat sold in Japanese supermarkets as whale meat. The film follows US conservation group Oceanic Preservation Society - equipped and financed to the tune of US$5 million by Netscape founder Jim Clark - as it penetrates a massive wall of security to protect the massacre of dolphins. Former Flipper trainer Ric O'Barry is an eloquent commentator on the intransigence of the Japanese and the ineffectiveness of the International Whaling Commission. CLICK HERE to view trailer.
