Giveaway! THE END OF THE LINE DVD – 2 Winners

This giveaway is now closed

endoftheline.jpgImagine an ocean without fish. This is the future – in less than 40 years – if we do not stop, think and act. Narrated by Ted Danson and based on the acclaimed book by Charles Clover, THE END OF THE LINE shows firsthand the effects of our global love affair with fish as food. It examines the imminent extinction of bluefin tuna, the huge overpopulation of jellyfish and the prospect of certain mass starvation. Filmed over two years across the world – from the Straits of Gibraltar to the coasts of Senegal and Alaska to the Tokyo fish market – featuring top scientists, indigenous fishermen and fisheries enforcement officials, THE END OF THE LINE is a wake-up call to the world.

Endorsed by National Geographic and Greenpeace, THE END OF THE LINE premiered at 2009’s Sundance Film Festival and went on to a limited national theatrical release. The movie educates us about this growing issue and what we can do in our everyday lives to combat the problem – such as supporting restaurants that only serve sustainable seafood, etc. In January 2010, the filmmakers launched a nationwide “Fish ‘n’ Flicks” dinner/screening campaign with some of America’s most renowned and ecologically conscious chefs to educate guests about what they can do to end overfishing.

Bonus materials on the DVD include the Ocean-Friendly Seafood Guide – a wallet-sized sustainable fish guide insert, six webisodes – Over 50 minutes of in-depth behind-the-scenes featurettes, a video message from Ted Danson, a short film titled “The Coral Triangle: Nursery of the Seas,” the trailer, and a filmmaker biography.
