Wholphin Program

 

Brooklyn Independent
is pleased to present
a selection of short films from
Wholphin

"a new quarterly DVD magazine from McSweeney's,
lovingly encoded with unique and ponderable films designed to
make you feel the way we felt when we learned that dolphins
and whales sometimes, you know, do it."
