The Scottish Fisheries Museum have teamed up with Netherlands-based charitable foundation “By the Ocean we Unite” for a special screening.

On the 2nd of October 7pm – 9pm, the Scottish Fisheries Museum invites you to join them for an online watch along of “An Ocean Story”, the feature- length documentary by Sander Van Weert featuring National Geographic explorer-in-residence and President/Chair of Mission Blue, Sylvia Earle, as well as the President of Iceland, Guoni Johannesson and UN Secretary-General’s Special Envoy for the Ocean, Peter Thomson.

Following the screening there will be an exclusive conversation facilitated by the museum with guest, marine biologist Marijn van Doorn, so (virtual!) attendees can discuss further the themes explored in the film and perhaps express specific hopes and solutions for a more sustainable, less damaging future.

The team behind the film explain what to expect …

“Increasing pollution, over-fishing and climate change are only a fraction of the threats our oceans are currently facing worldwide. This documentary follows us on our journey as we film devastating consequences of these harsh realities.”
