Whale Wars

The Sea Shepherds prepare to intercept the Japanese fleet before it can reach the whaling grounds. If the gamble fails, they risk missing the whalers entirely and sacrificing everything they've fought for.

Captain Watson's risky plan to intercept the whaling fleet nears a critical point. Meanwhile, an unknown object appears heading directly toward the flagship.

After a 30-foot rogue wave slams into the scout ship, the crew issues a distress call to the fleet -- but help is 20 hours away. As raging seas continue to pound the craft, the crew fears that they will not survive the night.

With the Japanese fleet's security escort looming on the horizon, the captain of the badly damaged scout ship Brigitte Bardot orders his crew to evacuate.

For the first time, Captain Paul Watson decides to openly engage a Japanese government vessel. The floating fortress is wrapped in spikes and barbed wire and armed with a full compliment of security personnel.

An unexpected twist plunges the Sea Shepherds into their most violent battle ever. Injuries mount in the ensuing melee and it seems that the fight will take a heavy toll.

When a massive target is detected on radar, the Sea Shepherds send out their new helicopter pilot to identify the mysterious vessel. But as the helicopter reaches the limits of its fuel range, it abruptly disappears and goes silent.

After months of frustration, the Sea Shepherds finally find their target -- the Nisshin Maru whale processing ship. Now they are locked in a desperate battle to salvage their struggling campaign.
