SHARKWATER In Theaters Nov.2nd

Having garnered 21 awards at film festivals around the world, filmmaker Rob Stewart's epic journey puts him on the front lines to save the planet. Film festival audiences around the world have been captivated by Rob Stewart's true-life adventure film, Sharkwater.

 

Part biologist, part investigative reporter, Stewart follows the trail of the multi-billion dollar shark fin trade and sets off a chain of events that has to be seen to be believed. His adventure becomes a dangerous mission involving espionage, corrupt governments, mafia rings, his arrest and a glimpse at his own mortality.

In an effort to protect sharks, Stewart teams up with renegade conservationist Paul Watson of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society. A confrontation between the Sea Shepherd and shark poachers in Guatemala results in a dramatic confrontation with a pirate Guatemalan fishing boat. But that's just the beginning, as they become involved in a gunboat chase, face corrupt court systems and attempted murder charges, and finally, are forced to flee for their lives.

Filmed in 15 countries in visually stunning, high definition video, Sharkwater takes you to the most shark-rich waters of the world, exposing the exploitation and corruption surrounding the world's shark populations. But what one comes away with is a story about the beauty of life on earth and our role in protecting its amazing balance.

Portland will get to see what the buzz is about beginning on November 2nd. This release follows a successful run in Canada, where Sharkwater broke opening weekend box office records, out-grossing the opening weekends of Bowling for Columbine, March of the Penguins and An Inconvenient Truth.

You'll never look at sharks in the same way again.
