NOAH'S ARK - A Coral Rescue First, Directed by Michael Alexander Zimmer
Florida Coral Rescue. An Unprecendented Expedition into the unknown. A disease called stony coral tissue loss was sweeping across Florida's Coral Reef. A team of scientists descended on the marquessas in the dry Tortugas to rescue and create a gene bank for future ciral restoration efforts. Were they too late? The inspiring story of risk... rescue and restoration.
SILENT SKIES, Directed by Casey Hogue
Silent Skies follows the groundbreaking journey of three Pennsylvania college students who orchestrated and piloted the first ever fully electric airplane stadium flyover. Stunning fans with a whisper-quiet show, this event signaled the dawn of America's transition to electric aviation. The students completed a record breaking trip flying the airplane from its base in Hartford, CT to the stadium in Easton, PA, recharging at enroute airports directly from a fleet of electric F-150 trucks.
REFABRICATE, Directed by Brielle Barozzini
"Refabricate" is an experimental documentary about sustainable fashion innovation in & around the Raleigh/Durham area in North Carolina. The documentary explores the topics of circular economy and accessibility within sustainable fashion.
