[Available June 25 on AppleTV+.] Terrific cinematography, scenery, and soundtrack highlight Drew Xanthopoulos's engaging, intriguing, fascinating, educational, 86-minute documentary that follows dedicated, passionate, and enthusiastic bioacoustics specialist Dr. Ellen Garland from Cornell University and acoustic ecologist Dr. Michelle Fournet as they are aided by other researchers, including PhD student in zoomusicology Alex South, researcher Maggie Knight, marine biologist Dr. Michael Poole, marine ecologist Dr. Leanna Matthews, and research assistant Natalie Mastick Jensen, while traveling to Alaska, Scotland, and French Polynesia to study humpback hypnotic whale songs and their "whup" calls in an attempt to determine the meaning of these songs, the function of its language, and how far the calls travel and to play back their recorded calls to study humpback's social communication.
