CAUGHT: Film screening and community building reception

The Faculty of Environment invites the University of Waterloo community to a special screening of CAUGHT on July 27 at The Eglinton Grand in Toronto.

As part of the 2022 Wildscreen Festival's official selection, this short documentary by environmental alliance Age of Union reveals the critical impacts of dangerous fishing methods and dolphin bycatch off the coast of France, while the French government does little to intervene. Through a raw, unfiltered look at boots-on-the-ground activism by the Sea Shepherd crew of the M/Y Age of Union, the film also pinpoints the potential catastrophic ripple effects of overfishing, jeopardizing sustainability for all life on earth in the foreseeable future.

The screening will be followed by a fireside chat with film contributors Dax Dasilva, Founder of Age of Union, and Will Allen, Cinematographer and Photographer, moderated by Dr. Sarah Burch, professor in the School of Geography and Environmental Management and Executive Director of the Waterloo Climate Institute. Guests are invited to a reception following the screening.

Seating is limited. Please RSVP before July 13th.
