MAPLE PICTURES: THE COVE: MTV Aftershow Coverage: On DVD December 8th 2009 2009 Toronto Hot Docs Award Winner & 2009 Sundance Film Festival Audience Award winner for Best US Documentary, THE COVE looks at a secret Japanese national park that is the site of some horrific actions against dolphins. In the 1960s, Richard O'Barry was the world's leading authority on dolphin training, working on the set of the popular television program Flipper. Day in and day out, O'Barry kept the dolphins working and television audiences smiling. But one day, that all came to a tragic end. The Cove, directed by Louie Psihoyos, tells the amazing true story of how Psihoyos, O'Barry and an elite team of activists, filmmakers and freedivers embarked on a covert mission to penetrate a hidden cove in Japan, shining light on a dark and deadly secret. The mysteries they uncovered were only the tip of the iceberg. Distributed in Canada by Maple Pictures. www.maplepictures.com www.facebook.com twitter.com
