New Blackfish Clip

Dogwoof Global Sales will be attending MIPDOC and MIPTV in Cannes next week with 13 titles in the screening library, available for film buyers to view, and we will be part of the MEDIA stand at the MIPTV market. We have been busy filling our schedule with numerous meetings, but have manged to find time to bring you a new clip from our upcoming documentary film Blackfish today. Blackfish is a global sales title, and we will also be releasing it in the UK later this year.

A mesmerizing psychological thriller with a killer whale at its centre, Blackfish is the first film since Grizzly Man to show how nature can get revenge on man when pushed to its limits. Blackfish tells the story of Tilikum, a performing killer whale that killed several people while in captivity. Along the way, director-producer Gabriela Cowperthwaite compiles shocking footage and emotional interviews to explore the creature’s extraordinary nature, the species’ cruel treatment in captivity, the lives and losses of the trainers and the pressures brought to bear by the mulit-billion dollar sea-park industry. This emotionally wrenching, tautly structured story challenges us to consider our relationship to nature and reveals how little we humans have learned from these highly intelligent and enormously sentient fellow mammals.
