A small group lead by two women penetrated into a research facility. Their mission: to get their hands on beluga audio files recorded off shore of a petroleum construction site. In a blend of reality and fiction, this short film questions communications strategies used by ecologists. How to gain public awareness about the survival of the St-Laurent Beluga whale, and other threatened species, without resorting to sensationalism? A philosophical project that addresses serious issues… without taking itself too seriously.
