Nowhere in recent history has a captive mammal garnered go much attention as Keiko, the orca star of the 1993 hit film, "Free Willy." The film's success, partnered with growing public interest in animals held in captivity, launched a children's crusade that called for Keiko's release into the wild. The result: a multimillion dollar project that spanned four countries, weathered endless controversy that continues to this day. Through first-hand accounts by the marine mammal experts charged with his care, "Keiko The Untold Story" follows Keiko, his life, his legacy of hope, and the untold story of his extraordinary years in Iceland and Norway. From a film-goer at the Portland Premier of the film : 'Congratulations Theresa Demarest!! Your film is fantastic, I'm thrilled to finally see it. Everyone around me was cheering and laughing - then crying - than smiling again. How wonderful to know that Keiko had a good quality of life for his last years.And what a legacy - cessation of trapping in Iceland, raised awareness of the plight of orcas in captivity, and proof that a captive orca can be returned to the wild. Here's hoping there's a chance for Morgan and Lolita, and so many others..." -Adrienne Welsh DVD Review
