To mark Animal Rights Awareness Week, beginning on June 22, take a look at this story of a former policeman from the Netherlands who left his home and career to join an anti-whaling ship, run by the Sea Shepherd organisation. They were fighting against the cruel killing of Whales, by the Japanese whaling ships in Antartica. For more details of Sea Shepherd visit https://seashepherd.org/ This video is based on Excerpts from Laurens de Groot, animal activist and writer’s show, when I was commissioned to film the Swindon Festival of Literature, organised by the town’s own Matt Holland in Wiltshire.
