We had two speakers for this very special documentary about plastic in the ocean.
Lovers of The Blue Planet would not have wanted to miss this incredible documentary, which takes viewers from Sydney beaches, and across the world, exploring the plight of the world’s oceans and its wildlife today.
Representatives from Greenpeace UK, Blue Marine Foundation and Sea Shepherd were in be attendance for the screening, talking about the work they do and answering audience questions after the feature has screened.
Jody Muston’s superb cinematography is utterly breathtaking, and the insight from some of the world’s leading conservationists and activists will leave you feeling empowered and positive that action is underway, and will continue to be taken, to save our struggling oceans.
“Blue is a cinematic song for our oceans; beautiful, intimate and grand. Fearlessly truth-telling, yet passionately hopeful. See this film and you will want to rise up with the waves.” — Greenpeace Australia
GREENPEACE UK representative, Fearghal Corbett, openinged the event with a presentation about the work the organisation is doing to combat the plastics issue.
