The End of the Line
In the 1990s, uncontrolled fishing caused the seemingly endless stock of cod in Nova Scotia to run dry. Now nearly two decades later, overfishing threatens to become a global ecological disaster. Director Rupert Murray (Unknown White Male) travels the world to discover who is responsible for the overfishing and what can be done to correct the problem before it's too late. Enlisting the help of Charles Clover, author of the book of the same name, The End of the Line tackles the complexities of overfishing head on and from all angels. From rural fishing villages where fisherman must now migrate with the fish to survive, to the large corporate fleets fishing beyond accepted quotas, Murray expertly captures the chaotic battle for the future of the world's oceans. A vibrant travelogue with a powerful message, The End of the Line will forever change the way you think about your next seafood dinner.
