I am a registered U.S. Indian of the Pottawottami Tribe and am proud of my heritage as were the native Indians of Canada in the new movie, "Luna: The Spirit Of The Whale". This movie was so powerful and filmed with such mastery that it compelled me to write this review. In "Luna: The Spirit Of The Whale" a tribe of natives loses their leader when he dies. When a rouge Orca appears in the bay, the entire tribe believes it to be their leader reincarnated who's come back to guide the tribe; everyone except the leaders' son. He doesn't want to take his father's job as the chief, but instead wants to go back to his home in the U.S.
When the local fishery gets mad, they tried
to move her( Luna the Whale) over land back
to her pod in the U.S. The tribe wouldn't let
that happen. (Tyler: you need to mention
here something about this being a movie about
a relationship between people and animals or
endangered species or somehow how this is related
to an environmental issue)
The movie was filmed from so many directions combined with amazing, dialog and incredible scenery that it kept my unwavering gaze glued to the screen. The characters were completely believable and showed such emotion and depth I was entranced. This is a movie I would see twice or more. Over all I give "Luna: The Spirit of the Whale" five stars out of five!
