Professional storyteller Simon Gauthier pounds the pavement, his backpack chock full of tales, baleinophone in hand. The pioneer of whale song classes takes you on a journey from Lyon to Tadoussac, in the footsteps of the first baleinophone, the essential tool of the man who makes the whales sing.

The video is in French:
