This is an opportunity of a lifetime. Sharkwater has already won 14 film festivals worldwide and set box office records during its opening weekend in Canada.
Finally a film that portrays
sharks as the magnificent creatures they are - to be admired and protected
rather than feared and senselessly destroyed. Rob Stewart is an incredible
artist who weaves together beautiful images with a horrendous reality and leaves
us all with a critical call to action. 100 million sharks are brutally pulled
from the ocean every year, their fins and tails sliced off, and then the dying
creatures are tossed back into the water.
Unable to swim. they sink to the bottom where they are eaten alive. Often garnering more than $300/lb, shark
fins add no flavor to the dishes they are added to as they are tasteless Their fins are nothing more
than merely a cultural indicator of wealth. The shark-fining industry is a close
parallel to the illegal drug industry - full of underworld corruption and
extreme violence.
In the next 10 years ,
it is anticipated most shark species will become extinct - an impact that
threatens the health of not just the ocean but of the entire world. If we are to
stop this senseless brutality and save the remaining sharks, we must come
together and act now.
See this movie. Educate yourself. Bring attention to the cause: Stop the cruel and senseless destructions of sharks.
