- Summary:
- If you saw BLACKFISH, you will want to see LOLITA. In 2002, Valerie Silidker and Tim Gorski set out to uncover the real life story of Lolita, the world's oldest performing whale. Their journey delivered them from Miami Florida to San Juan Island where she was captured 3 decades ago. The intimate, heart-rending tale unfolded before them as they unearthed many heavily-guarded secrets of the multi-billion dollar Marine Theme Park industry. Viewers travel with Gorski and Silidker as they visit Lolita's immediate family in the wild and interview the renowned orca biologist Ken Balcomb who wants her back.
