Marine biologist Dr. Roger Payne has dedicated four decades to studying whales and campaigning for their protection; his groundbreaking studies of whale songs and habitat pollution helped lay the foundation for the ocean conservation movement. This evocative documentary combines the natural history of whales with the story of Payne's life and career, and raises important questions about man's responsibility to the Earth and its creatures.
