A series of underwater adventure and discovery
Valdes - Bay of the Whales
With Krov and Ann Menuhin Narrator Hugh Falkus
Unique close-up encounters with whales in their breeding grounds off the Argentine coast: meeting a 60-foot whale underwater face to face sounds like a frightening assignment, yet this is what Krov and Ann Menuhin undertook to do for their first film.
It was part of an eight-month visit to the Valdes Peninsula to film a vast concentration of breeding sea-lions, elephant seals, whales, penguins and other seabirds. The Menuhins had many adventures but none more exciting than with the Southern Right Whales.
Their pictures of the great porpoise-like creature sliding, bucking, playing - and, in one breathtaking moment, knocking mermaid Ann across the screen with its tail - are unique. (Sunday Times) It was a unique record, made all the more absorbing because of the spirit of humility in which the humans made their contacts with the other species. (Western Daily Press)
