THE OCEAN IS OUR PLAYGROUND, OUR ICE BOX, OUR LIFE BLOOD |
The Hawaii Ocean Film Festival combines the power of the ocean with the voices and visions of people around the globe to express their love of the ocean. Embracing culture and community, sport and spirit, the ocean theme opens the door for interpretation of the environment, its issues and sciences, or water sports activities. From below the sea, to the salty air above the wild surf, films at past events covered a vast array of topics. Adventure stories, extreme sports, environmental documentaries, and short films find an audience in Hawaii, and hopefully, around the world ! Mahalo to Malama Hawaii and The Nature Conservancy Primary Sponsor for 2008 ~check them out at www.iyor-hawaii.org |
| HUGE NEWS FOR Marine Resource Filmmakers !!! The Society for Conservation Biology is sponsoring the International Marine Conservation Conference in Washington DC. On Opening Night the Smithsonian Institution will be hosting a social event to announce a new exhibition called the Ocean Hall. The IMCC steering committee would like to show marine conservation oriented film at the event as well. We would like to propose that this be a joint event between the Hawaii Ocean Film Festival and the IMCC where the film we choose is one of the films that wins an award at the Hawaii Ocean Film Festival. 2008 OPENING NIGHT LINE-UP |
