Chasing Coral
Directed by Jeff Orlowski
Produced by Sustainable Films, Exposure Labs
A visually stunning but deeply melancholic documentary that uses time-lapse photography and underwater imagery to expose the silent catastrophe of coral bleaching and humanity's role in ecological collapse.
Coral reefs are the nursery for all life in the oceans, a remarkable ecosystem that sustains us. Yet with carbon emissions warming the seas, a phenomenon called "coral bleaching" -- a sign of mass coral death -- has been accelerating around the world, and the public has no idea of the scale or implication of the catastrophe silently raging underwater.
