SHORT FILM : TIED TO THE SEA

Tied to The Sea explores our human impact on marine ecosystems, the presence of critical tipping points in our environment, and what we can do to create change. Through a blend of science and personal narratives, the film explores the effects of plastics, POPs (persistent organic pollutants), preservatives and chemical compounds on the health of the ocean. When we feel connected, we care. When we care, we take action. And action can\’t be put off any longer.
