''[[The Cove]]'' is a 2009 documentary which won the 2010 [[Academy Award]] for Best Documentary. It documents the practices of the small town of Taiji, Japan, a Real-Life [[Town with a Dark Secret]]. Every year, fishermen in Taiji drive thousands of dolphins into a small secretive cove, where they are slaughtered. The documentary revolves around a small crew of American and Canadian filmakers who try to find ways to plant cameras to document these horrible killings. It was followed up by a new series headed by Ric O'Berry, ''[[Blood Dolphins]]''.
