Celebrating the Majesty of Oceans with David Attenborough and IndieWire

In the heart of Eagle Rock at the Vidiots Foundation, a captivating evening awaits those eager to dive deep into the mysteries of our planet’s oceans. On the evening of May 5, IndieWire, in partnership with National Geographic, will host a special screening of the Emmy-contending documentary "Ocean with David Attenborough". This event promises not just a visual feast but also an engaging discussion post-screening.

A Glimpse into the Underwater World

Directed by Keith Scholey, "Ocean with David Attenborough" offers viewers a spectacular tour of the world’s oceans. Narrated by the venerable David Attenborough, the documentary explores the crucial roles of oceans in our ecosystems and highlights the pressing threats they face today. Accompanying the film is a detailed companion book titled “Ocean: Earth’s Last Wilderness,” co-authored by Attenborough himself along with Colin Butfield, who also shares directorial credits with Scholey and Toby Nowlan.

An Evening of Insights and Discussion

Following the screening, Keith Scholey will take the stage alongside IndieWire’s Awards Editor Marcus Jones for a dynamic conversation. This discussion is expected to shed more light on the making of the documentary, the inspirations behind it, and the message it aims to convey about ocean conservation.

Join the Celebration

The event is open to TV Academy members, guild members, and the general public who are passionate about filmmaking and environmental issues. Post-discussion, attendees are invited to a reception featuring beer and wine, allowing for further interaction and networking. Those interested in being part of this insightful evening can register online, but be advised, space is limited and admission is not guaranteed.

For those unable to attend the screening, "Ocean with David Attenborough" is available for streaming on platforms such as National Geographic, Disney+, and Hulu. This accessibility ensures that the powerful message of the documentary reaches a wide audience, spreading awareness and fostering a deeper appreciation for our oceans.
