Seaspiracy
Channel: Netflix South Africa
TX Time: 10h00
Genre: Documentary, Wildlife, Nature, True Crime
Passionate about ocean life, a filmmaker sets out to document the harm that humans do to marine species — and uncovers alarming global corruption.
Seaspiracy examines the global fishing industry, challenging notions of sustainable fishing and showing how human actions cause widespread environmental destruction.
From the co-creator who brought you the documentary Cowspiracy comes Seaspiracy, a follow up that illuminates alarming - and not widely known - truths about the widespread environmental destruction to our oceans caused by human behaviour.
Filmmaker Ali Tabrizi initially set out to celebrate his beloved ocean, but instead found himself examining the harm that humans inflict upon the vulnerable seas.
From plastics and fishing gear polluting the waters, to the irreparable damage of bottom trawling and by-catch, to illegal fishing and devastating hunting practices, humanity is wreaking havoc on marine life and, by extension, the entire planet.
What Tabrizi ultimately uncovered not only challenges notions of sustainable fishing but will shock anyone who cares about the wonders of ocean life, as well as the future of the planet and our place on it.
