Tales of a Sea Cow describes how a team of scientists have achieved the first ever decoding of animal communication; for the first time in history, they have translated the song of a marine mammal - the 'Steller's Sea Cow' - a species, which was until now thought to be extinct since 1768. The rediscovery in 2007 off the coast of Greenland is discovered in 'Tales of a Sea Cow'.

The documentary blends fiction and non-fiction to tell the story of a young woman whose encounter with the intense natural beauty of Iceland inspires her to examine her comfortable notions of sanity and creativity. The island's intensity reminds Andrea of her schizophrenic brother Jacob, a young man who isn’t bound by the conventional standards. “Delusional” thought and “erratic” behavior seem not so different from Andrea’s untamed surroundings in which the wind rants, the clouds are grandiose and the seasons bi-polar.
