In a sleepy lagoon off the coast of Japan, behind a wall of barbed wire and "Keep Out" signs, lies a shocking secret. It is here, under cover of night, that the fishermen of Taiji engage in an unseen hunt for thousands of dolphins, driven by a multi-billion dollar dolphin entertainment industry and a black market for dolphin meat. The nature of the work is so horrifying; a few desperate men will stop at nothing to keep it hidden from the world.  But when an elite team of activists, filmmakers and free-divers embark on a covert mission to penetrate the cove, they are not only able to shine a light on the fishermen's deadly and dark secret  - they discover that the shocking atrocities they find there are just the tip of the iceberg.  Utilizing state-of-the-art techniques, including hidden microphones and cameras, the team uncovers how this small seaside village serves as a horrifying microcosm of massive ecological crimes happening worldwide.
