• Lolita: Slave to Entertainment (2003), directed by Gorski, this a 56 min documentary narrates how, "in the summer of 1970 a barbaric hunt kills five orca whales and destroys the lives of countless others. Six young orcas are ripped away from their family, sold to marine parks, and shipped across the world to enter into a life of slavery. Three decades later only one survives. And she just so happens to be Miami's biggest performer: Lolita."[4] Publicized in the context of public gatherings demanding freedom of the whale from its seaquarium captivity,[5] the film has been cited as an example of the extent to which documentaries can contribute to change certain realities.[6]
