Hawaii:Message in the Waves
49 min. This beautiful and inspiring documentary features the wildlife of Hawaii’s famous surf zone and the surfers and scientists who are fighting to protect it. Turtles, dolphins, monk seals and albatrosses all have to cope with the growing number of people using the island beaches, but now animals face an additional threat from washed up plastic. A varied bunch of island characters make it clear that these beautiful islands have a powerful message for us all. South Hams based filmmaker and farmer Rebecca Hoskins made this film and went on to campaign for Modbury to become the UK’s first plastic bags free town. With the current revived interest in reducing plastic waste it is timely for us to revisit this film and perhaps reduce plastic use locally.
