Ever wonder what a documentary about the commercial fishing industry would look like from the product’s point of view? Leviathan is an immersive, almost assaultive piece of subjective cinema designed to literally plunge us into the deep, experiencing the catch of the day from inside the nets. 

A single night’s fishing off the New Bedford coast, where some of the action of Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick took place. - NOW MAGAZINE
