WATSON

As a young man, environmental activist Paul Watson was forced to watch as a living whale was killed right before his very eyes, an event that shook him deeply. Ever since, Watson has been radically dedicated to the ocean’s wildlife. With his controversial yet efficient methods, the former Greenpeace co-founder, now a media-savvy captain of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, is forcing whalers and fish poachers to retreat. WATSON tells the life story of one of the most important faces of the global environmental protection movement and captivatingly beautiful underwater footage takes us into the world of vast oceans and their endangered biodiversity.
