Film Screening – Reviving Giants and Southern Blast

Free film screening of Reviving Giants and Southern Blast, presented by Great Southern Reef, Surfrider, Sea Forest and Environment Tasmania, hosted at the Watershed in Wynyard.

Mick Barren and Dr Karen Gowlett-Holmes have been running the Eaglehawk Dive Centre on the iconic Tasman Peninsula since 1991. Great Southern Reef’s new incredible short 10-minute film, Reviving Giants, explores their personal reflections on the dramatic changes observed in the giant kelp forests within their lifetimes and their ongoing efforts to gain traction in the restoration of these reefs.

Southern Blast, directed by award-winning director Matty Hannon, is a beautiful cinematic celebration of the wild landscapes, abundant marine life, and community that call the Southern Sea home. The film focuses on the imminent threat of seismic blasting on this region, and what we can do to stop it.

The films will be complemented by an insightful panel Q and A.
