Chasing Coral Screening - Hosted by OneReef

SEE EVENT DETAILS
CHASING CORAL- A Screening Presented by OneReef at Montalvo Arts Center
2018 is the "Year of the Coral Reef" - and we are kicking it off with a documentary are coral reefs around the world, which are vanishing at an unprecedented rate. From award-winning Director Jeff Orlowski, comes Chasing Coral, and the first time-lapse camera to record bleaching events as they happen. With its breathtaking photography, nail-biting suspense, and startling emotion, Chasing Coral is a dramatic revelation of an underwater mystery. "A triumph of both visual and narative storytelling" - The Economist
CHASING CORAL is a film directed by Jeff Orlowski and produced by Larissa Rhodes, as an Exposure Labs production. It was filmed over three years, with 650+ hours underwater, includes footage from over 30 countries, and was made with the support of over 500 people around the world.
FROM THE MAKERS OF CHASING ICE COMES THE REMARKABLE ADVENTURE OF ONE TEAM CAPTURING OUR CHANGING OCEANS.

What does OneReef do?
Incorporated in 2012 as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, OneReef works to protect coral reef ecosystems by establishing partnerships between local stewards and a global community willing to invest in their conservation efforts.
The OneReef Community Partnership Model has protected more than 350,000 acres of coral reef across Micronesia, at the low annual cost of $3/acre, with the ultimate goal to protect more than 2.7 million acres (20%) of the region’s reefs.
Funders and local communities want to work with OneReef because they get measurable outcomes… more fish, more jobs, new skills, healthier reefs, protection against climate change, and an intact legacy of beauty and economic benefits to leave to future generations.
