Saving Luna: The True Story of a Lone Orca

What happens when a wild orca tries to make friends with people – not for food, but for companionship? Should humans welcome him or turn away?

Saving Luna is a true story about one such killer whale, Luna.

We are currently producing a documentary called Saving Luna for CBC Newsworld’s The Lens. Additionally, we recently received support from Telefilm Canada’s Theatrical Documentary Program for a theatrical release of Saving Luna.

We're also writing a non-fiction book about Luna, to be published in Canada and the USA. Please check back here for broadcast and publication dates. For more information on the production, please visit www.savingluna.com
