About the film

The Cove is a 2009 American documentary film directed by Louie Psihoyos that analyzes and questions dolphin hunting practices in Japan. The film is a call to action to halt mass dolphin kills and captures and change Japanese fishing practices. It also seeks to inform and educate the public about the dangers of keeping cetaceans in captivity and the increasing hazard of mercury poisoning from consuming dolphin meat. Psihoyos is a former-National Geographic photographer and a co-founder of the Oceanic Preservation Society, and the film is presented from an ocean conservationist's point of view. Portions were filmed secretly in 2007 using underwater microphones and high-definition cameras disguised as rocks.

How to watch it together from different places

Each of you opens The Cove on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
