North Atlantic right whales are dying faster than they can reproduce. With less than 350 remaining, these great mammals rarely die of natural causes. Instead they are run over by ships or suffer lethal injuries from fishing gear. With unprecedented access to film the migration from their calving ground off the coast of Florida, to Cape Cod Bay and onward north to their shifting feeding grounds in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, LAST OF THE RIGHT WHALES brings a message of hope about a great creature on the brink of extinction. We bear witness to their struggle and see the promise of new fishing techniques that bring hope for their survival.
DON'T FORGET TO VOTE! THIS FILM IS ELIGIBLE FOR THE SALEM FILM FEST AUDIENCE AWARD.
