Leviathan

OTTAWA PREMIERE | LOS ANGELES FILM CRITICS ASSOC. AWARD-WINNER

This experimental doc about the North Atlantic fishery seems at first like a man-vs.-nature story, but quickly becomes something much more. This “is cinema on the edge. It shows us a world, ours but unrecognizable, as we’ve never seen it before… a titanic achievement, a visceral overload whose impact registers immediately and with great force.” (Slant)
