I agree, it was one of the better documentaries I've seen it a while and, even though it had an important message to convey it was presented in a balanced, non-propagandistic way. Unlike movies like 'Blackfish' and "The Cove", it did not villain-ize any particular people or entities and had no strong political undertones. I really appreciated the filmmakers' efforts to portray the POV and feelings of Terry as well as Tim and show it as a learning process rather than simply a rebuke.
Not specific animals, the only other documentaries I can recall which really work hard to take such a fair, multi-dimensional approach are:
Who Killed the Electric Car?
Sound and Fury
Happy
…and although it has no sort of cultural commentary or message, probably the best documentary(s) ever made is BBC's Planet Earth series with David Attenborough. Also Winged Migration and March of the Penguins are two of my other all-time fav's. I prefer to just see the filmic beauty of the animals anyways and make up my own decision regarding their rights and well being.
Otterprods, to keep those aquatic Mustelidae in line.
