The undersea world offers an endless source of subjects for film, and the mysterious life of cetaceans is certainly one of them. Inspired by the poem by Heathcote Williams, Whale Nation doesn’t deny its lyrical underpinnings and its desire to create an unconventional documentary. It follows several storylines - from the rescue of a stranded whale on the beach, to the depiction of the lives of various cetaceans, to dream sequences - all accompanied by an unforgettable soundtrack. Personally, I was unable to tune in to its (sea) wave during the first half of the film, my interest piqued only when it raised its finger against ocean pollution and fishing. Better three stars!
