The right whale population currently numbers around 400 specimens (barely 100 females!). This documentary film follows Julien Robichaud in his quest to determine whether his generation will ultimately be responsible for the extinction of the right whale. In recent years, the species has undergone a significant decline due to numerous boating accidents that occur in Canada, where the species is mainly found. Julien raises the main issues related to the fight for the survival of right whales in this documentary on sea and land.
An adventure that examines efforts to save this species, whose population is estimated at 350 individuals in the waters of Eastern Canada.
