Zamrock, the Afro-rock genre that swept southern Africa in the 1970s, was born in the Copperbelt region of northern Zambia, and WITCH was at the center of it all. In the beginning, lead singer Emmanuel 'Jagari' Chanda and the band looked for a name to match edgy rock sounds coming from Europe and America. First they tried Kingston Market, which sounded too reggae-ish, then they tried Footswitch, but there was a local artist called Dr Footswitch, so they shortened it to Switch, and then finally WITCH. "The posters were handwritten," Jagari recalled, "so we would draw somebody on a broomstick." Hot out of the gate, WITCH signed to Teal Records and began touring in a truck with a canopy emblazoned with the words: "Trespassers will be eaten" The graphic artist who wrote those words also gave the band its enduring acronym: We Intend To Cause Havoc. Jagari recalls, "There was no hesitation. Everyone agreed" And the rest is history.

"Blue Whales: Return of the Giants" takes you on a journey of a lifetime to explore the world of the magnificent blue whale, a species rebounding from the brink of extinction. Blue whales are the largest animals ever to have lived—bigger than any dinosaur—yet we know surprisingly little about them. Blue Whales will transform our understanding of these iconic creatures. The film follows two scientific expeditions: one, a high-risk mission to find a missing population of blue whales not seen in 50 years; and the other, to join Diane Gendron, the “Blue Whale Whisperer,” in Mexico’s Gulf of California, where she and her team explore the important role these remarkable animals play in the health of our oceans. The film provides an unforgettable window into the lives these animals live—and the extremes scientists must endure to study them. Joined by a cast of supporting characters—from dolphins and sperm whales to sea lions and orcas—the blue whale finally gets its turn to be a star. Experience it life-size on the Giant Dome screen! Blue Whales is narrated by award-winning actor Andy Serkis. This film was produced by Oceanic Films with major funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and is the third collaboration between SK Films and HHMI Tangled Bank Studios. One documentary film is included with a Fleet Experience admission ticket. You may purchase a Fleet Experience admission ticket on-line and scan at the Fleet Science Center’s entrance on your date of choice. All documentary films are available on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservations are required. Individual tickets for Blue Whales showtimes are not available. Doors to the theater open approximately 10 minutes prior to showtimes, and no late entry will be allowed once the film has begun. Please note that school groups may be in attendance at 11 a.m. films Monday through Thursday. Visit: https://www.fleetscience.org/films/blue-whales Fleet Science Center on Instagram and Facebook
