Fishbowl
In this student-produced documentary, the realities of captive orcas are revealed as students Jip Koster and Lara Lustemberg explore the ethical and ecological challenges surrounding these highly intelligent marine animals. Through engaging interviews with animal rights activists and marine scientists, the film explores the physical and psychological dangers that orcas face in captivity. An examination of their natural intelligence and social needs is contrasted with the conditions they live in, leading to a deeper conversation about the ethics of animal captivity and our responsibility as co-habitants of earth.
