About The Secret of the Whales
In New Zealand, a scientist, his family and down-on-his-luck investigator are trying to prove that the beaching of the local whale population is caused by activities of a corporation which is searching for natural gas in the area.
Directed by Philipp Kadelbach, The Secret of the Whales leans on a strong ensemble — Veronica Ferres, Christopher Lambert, Mario Adorf — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2010.
