¿Puede un puñado de amigos periodistas y científicos hippies, armados únicamente con cámaras, cambiar el mundo? En 1971 un pequeño grupo de activistas canadienses inició su primera misión a bordo de un viejo barco de pesca: detener los ensayos de la bomba atómica de Nixon en Alaska. Este fue el nacimiento del movimiento medioambiental y la creación de la organización global que hoy conocemos como Greenpeace. Este grupo de ecologistas pacifistas utilizan las imágenes como “bombas mentales” capaces de transformar conciencias, confiando en el poder de las imágenes y de los medios de comunicación como herramientas de cambio social. El activismo es desordenado. Las auténticas revoluciones nunca han podido ser organizadas. ¿Podrán ponerse de acuerdo en la importante misión de salvar el planeta?

Confessions of an Eco-Terrorist (Confessions) is not your typical eco-film. Seen through the eyes of activist Peter Jay Brown (from Whale Wars), Confessions grants the viewer an intimate look at shipboard life amongst these self-proclaimed animal saviors and sea rebels, the ones who helped shape the Green Movement we know and love today.

A documentary on Paul Watson, who takes the law into his own hands on the open seas, confronting, by any nonviolent means necessary, the hunters who indiscriminately slaughter whales, seals and sharks, along with complicit governments and environmental organizations. Written by Anonymous "Pirate for the Sea" is a biographical film of Captain Paul Watson, the youngest founding member of Greenpeace Canada. He organized early campaigns protesting the killing of seals, whales, and dolphins. Greenpeace ejected him for being too much of an activist. Starting his own organization, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, he went on to sink illegal whaling ships, stopped Canadian seal hunts for ten years, permanently halted sealing in British Isles, killing of dolphins on Iki Island, Japan, etc. This documentary witnesses his latest campaigns and explores the personal and environmental history of this controversial marine conservationist.
