Sharkwater: An amazing Canadian documentary. Although the film could be improved, the message is important and you have to respect the filmmaker for his risks and dedication to an important issue. Definitely worth seeing! ( What you can do - talk to the owners of Chinese restaurants - ask them to see the movie and remove shark fin soup from the menu. If that doesn't work boycott restaurants serving sharkfin soup)
