“Requiem for a Whale,” is a new short documentary by Ido Weisman that captures the aftermath of a whale’s death—capturing the range of responses of human observers. For some, the decomposing animal becomes a backdrop for selfies, as the park authorities perform an autopsy and journalists report at the scene. Shot in two days in February, 2021, the film combines visual material from the period after the whale washed ashore with the voice-over conversations that were conducted later on. To Weisman, the whale is a message about our behavior as human beings. “That we need to be better, and more kind to this place,” he said. Watch the full film: https://youtu.be/CpKEfofn5Nw
