Chasing the Thunder

A high-seas, dramatic environmental documentary about conservation activist vessel Sea Shepherd, and its epic 110-day, 10,000-mile chase of the “Thunder,” one of the world’s most notorious poaching vessels. Across two seas and three oceans, the marine activists of the Sea Shepherd hunt the fugitive fishing ship through massive ice floes, storm-tossed seas, a near-collision and violent confrontations until a final and dramatic clash. Chasing the Thunder is a thrilling adventure full of drama, action and excitement that tells the real life story of a group of marine activists with their minds set on a mission and the will to persist until they have reached their goal of hunting down the infamous “Thunder.” (Miami Film Festival)
