Chasing Coral

2017 · 93 min

A sober, beautiful plunge into vanishing reefs that builds quiet dread and sorrow as it documents an unfolding underwater loss.

Overview: 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.
How it feels: Melancholic, earnest and tense. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Environment, nature, science, grief
Content: Mild language. No violence, gore or sexual content.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
