The Whale Song
A marine biologist follows the loneliest whale in the world on a 10,000-mile journey across the Pacific.
About This Film
For decades, scientists tracked a whale singing at 52 hertz, a frequency no other whale uses. Dr. Amara Osei mounts an expedition using AI-enhanced hydrophone arrays to find and film this singular creature. What they discover challenges everything we knew about whale communication.
