The Cove Takes An OSCAR

The movie The Cove has taken the OSCAR for best documentary.

WDCS applauds the Academy for recognizing this important film and is hopeful that the continuing international exposure will raise the profile of the dolphin drive hunts in Japan and see an end to these horrible events.

The Oscars reward the previous year’s greatest cinema achievements as determined by some of the world’s most accomplished motion picture artists and professionals, and represent one of the highest honours in film-making.
