On October 1st, come watch A Whale of a Tale. "In 2010, the sleepy fishing town of Taiji in Japan suddenly found itself in the worldwide media spotlight. The Cove, a documentary denouncing the town's longstanding whale and dolphin hunting traditions, won an Academy Award, and almost overnight, Taiji become the go-to destination and battleground for activists from around the world. A Whale of a Tale revisits this story but discovers a different perspective - and a different question. Can a proud 400-year-old whaling tradition survive a tsunami of modern animal-rights activism and colliding forces of globalism vs localism?
