Here at SuperVegan we hold a special place in our hearts for Captain Paul Watson and the Sea Shepard Conservation Society. Not only because one of our own, SuperVegan blogger and bona fide vegan pirate Tod Emko has fought right alongside Mr. Watson, but also because while you and I may be content to sip on our agave-sweetened soy lattes while debating the nuances of vegan “cheese”, these ladies and gents are in the trenches fighting the good fight.
At the Edge of the World opens today in NYC at Cinema Village and will continue until September 3rd.
Those familiar with Animal Planet’s, Whale Wars will be acquainted with the premise (incidentally, the finale was the most watched show in the channel’s history): a determined group of eco activists attempt to disrupt a Japanese Whaling fleet in Antarctic Waters by any means necessary!
The director will be on hand for a Q&A at tonight’s (Friday) shows.

on #The movie was definitely worth seeing. I has gotten great reviews from everyone and seeing it simply confirmed all of my feelings. I saw it Saturday at 3, and the director and one of the camera men did a Q&A after our showing, too. They also gave out blu-ray discs of the whole film! Let me know if anyone wants to borrow it!
