《台灣的極危險瀕臨絕種白海豚》
Taiwan’s Critically Endangered Dolphins
Christina MacFarquhar / 2010 / Taiwan/UK / 9min / En/Ch 英/中
這部影片為台灣極度瀕危的印太洋駝海豚（媽祖魚）所面臨的威脅及在地保育運動者遭逢的問題提供一個概觀。大規模的工業發展和密集的漁業行為已經改變了牠們的棲地，也使這個族群蒙受滅絕的危機。在數個重大開發案環伺而缺乏實際保育作為的當下，媽祖魚保育聯盟的陳秉亨提出了大哉問：「台灣到底有沒有要保護白海豚」？
For years, local activist groups have been fighting to save a critically endangered population of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins in the Taiwan Strait. Industrial pollution is threatening to kill off these pink dolphins, known locally as “Matsu’s Fish.” This film, a Taiwan premier, asks the question: when will Taiwan start to take its environment seriously?

《The Cove》血色海灣
Louie Psihoyos/2009/美國/92分鐘
是今年2010奧斯卡最佳紀錄片得主，也同時贏得各大影展餘50多個獎項，包含日舞影展觀眾票選最佳紀錄片獎。本片令人憤慨的調查之旅將帶我們進入一個持續進行幾十年，世界上最令人髮指之一的綠色和平犯罪活動的危險海灣。
美國60年代當紅電視影集《飛寶》的海豚訓練師－瑞克•歐巴瑞Ric O'Barry帶領一個由社運份子和潛水精英所組成的團隊潛入日本和歌山縣太地町海灣，為揭發海豚圍捕真相，無視於警方的警告及肢體恐嚇。因為在這裡，每年有2萬3千隻的海豚遭到屠殺。這段日官方不斷反覆辯稱「為科學研究」並視為惡夢的鯨豚大屠殺的恐怖影片片段，目前已呈現給國際捕鯨委員會的當權者。
然而，此片之所以選擇將日本太地町的屠殺公諸於世，最大的擔憂及因素也是我們如何因過度漁獵而造成海洋生態滅絕。如同瑞克•歐巴瑞Ric O'Barry在片中所說：「若是我們無法改變什麼，那也不必理會其他更重要的事件了，因為根本就沒有希望。」

The Cove
Louie Psihoyos/2009/USA/92mins
The Cove won the 2010 Oscar for Best Documentary, in addition to over 50 other film festival awards, including Audience Choice for Best Documentary at Sundance. The film is an investigative thrill ride, leading us into a dangerous natural cove where one of the world’s worst environmental crimes has been taking place for decades. Ric O'Barry, the dolphin trainer from the TV show Flipper, leads a team of divers and activists who defy police warnings and physical threats to shed light on a dolphin roundup in Taiji, Japan, where 23,000 dolphins are slaughtered each year. Chilling footage from this annual slaughter is presented to the authorities at an International Whaling Commission, to the horror of Japanese officials who continue to defend the slaughter of whales for “scientific purposes.” The greater concern of the film, however, is how we are killing the oceans through overfishing. The reason they choose to make their point in Taiji, Japan is, as O’Barry says in the film, “If we can’t fix that, forget about the bigger issues. There’s no hope.”
