SEA SHEPHERD

In Canadian waters, Captain Paul Watson faces off against the ruthless seal hunters of Norway, exposing the surprising charade of their “tradition”.

Captain Paul Watson is a force to be reckoned with.

He is the world’s most effective defender of whales, sharks, dolphins, seals… the oceans. His ongoing battle against the seal hunters of the North Atlantic has forced him to endure assault, incarceration and multiple attempts on his life, yet he continues to defend the Earth with unparalleled conviction.

Sea Shepherd was meant to be a chronicle of Watson’s metamorphosis from a fledgling activist at just nine years old (he used his BB gun to shoot other boys in the butt if they were aiming at birds) to captain of a fleet of ships defending marine life.

 

Sadly, funding could not be secured for production.

This short film instead is the promotional video made by Vanessa Schulz to help sell the story that has yet to be told. It shows how exciting, passionate and incredibly valuable one life, lived well, can be.

In July 2024, Captain Watson was detained in Nuuk by the Danish police, citing an Interpol red notice from Japan.
He was expected to stay in pre-trial detention until October 2, 2024; Watson and the
Captain Paul Watson Foundation filed an appeal
with the Supreme Court to have the decision set aside.
After his detention was extended several times,
on December 17, 2024, the Danish government decided that Watson would not be extradited to Japan.
He was released from prison and returned to France.
