Description
It is one of the most expensive fish products in the world – selling for as much as USD$200 a kilo. Shark fin is considered a delicacy and a status symbol for those who can afford to buy it. Most fins are turned into shark fin soup. But conservationists say the practice of shark finning is cruel and wasteful and the massive trade is threatening the survival of the species itself. Viewers may find some of the pictures in this film distressing.
