Whaledreamers, a Julian Lennon production, winner of 8 international awards at film festivals around the world, was shown at a special preview screening at Millers Academy, Notting Hill, London, prior to its UK release later this year.

The film is a personal odyssey for director, Kim Kindersley, who explained that the film was over 10 years in the making. With breathtaking cinematography, the story follows the Aboriginal tribe of the Mirning on a powerful journey, assisted by indigenous elders from around the world, to reconnect with their Sacred Earth and their spirit animals, the whales.

A truly thought provoking film with a deep message of peace and transformation, it is a rallying call for humanity to widen its circle of compassion to embrace all living beings and the Earth itself. In one of the many powerful moments Julian Lennon is presented by the Tribal Elders with a white feather. It is revealed that his father, John Lennon, said to him, shortly before he died: “'If anything ever happens to me look for a white feather and you'll now I'm there, looking out for you.”

The film had a strong emotional effect on the audience calling us to action. Over 125 global climate awareness websites have reported contact and commitment from those who have seen the film at previews around the world.

Rosana Golden, Founder - Monaco International Film Festival

"It is quite simple... this film needs to be seen... it needs to be experienced. I watched people cry, applaud, look dazed, be overwhelmed and some completely inspired... A roller-coaster journey with distinct messages about the plight of Earth and humanity. Fortunately it also offers hope... and not in Hollywood-style... but with clarity and heart."
ABC RADIO, NSW Australia

"The film sent chills through the audience and shook them to their roots. We were honoured to begin our festival with such a powerful call from aboriginal elders to remember who we are, where we come from, what's going on and where we need to go. The producers of the film sent this powerful message with superb writing, directing and cinematography. And the music is to die for. Toronto LOVED the film!"
-Johanna Kern, Executive and Artistic Director
Fantasy Worldwide Film Festival - Toronto
