Great White Lies

About This Movie

Great White Lies offers a contemplative dive into the hot-button issue of shark culling, particularly focusing on that controversial decision by the Western Australian Government in 2014. With Skyler Thomas at the helm, the film flows through a tapestry of interviews with scientists and policymakers across Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand. The pacing is measured, allowing the weight of the subject matter to sink in. It's not just about the sharks; it's a broader commentary on humanity's relationship with nature. The practical effects are subtle, centered on real interviews rather than dramatizations. What stands out is its earnest approach, often leaving viewers with more questions than answers about conservation and the ethics of wildlife management.
