“...a visually stunning adventure and inspirational film that celebrates values ​​like friendship and teamwork and subtly advocates for ocean conservation" — Kino-Zeit

CHIFF presents a special screening of this acclaimed animated adventure about family, self-belief and the protection of our oceans.

Vincent, a teenage humpback whale, is the orphaned son of the last Whale Singer, whose magical song once protected the oceans. Burdened by the loss of his parents, Vincent doubts his own abilities. When the monstrous Leviathan escapes from a melting iceberg, threatening all marine life with its poisonous ink, Vincent must find his own song to stop the threat.

Overwhelmed by self-doubt, he instead embarks on a perilous journey to the deepest point of the sea to bring his parents back from the mythical Star Pool, hoping his father can defeat the Leviathan in his place. Joined by Walter, his finicky remora fish nanny, and Darya, a brave, deaf orca, Vincent must face his fears and discover his own song to save the oceans.

Tickets include a small popcrn and treats from our friends at Kez's Kitchen.
