| How does this production embrace sustainability?: |
This film is aimed to stop deep-sea trawlers from harming the Mediterranean ecosystem. It does so by showing how activism can be a form of art. |
| Synopsis: |
Italian fisherman Paolo Fanciulli had tried everything to stop deep-sea trawlers from harming his beloved Mediterranean ecosystem. He protested, monkey-wrenched and even impersonated a policeman, but nothing worked. That’s when he hatched the plan to commission 10-ton marble sculptures and place them on the ocean floor. |
