THE END OF THE LINE
Cert. PG
This is the first major feature documentary film revealing the impact of over-fishing on our oceans, where we see firsthand the effects of our global love affair with fish as food. It examines the imminent extinction of bluefin tuna, brought on by increasing western demand for sushi; the impact on marine life resulting in huge overpopulation of jellyfish; and the profound implications of a future world with no fish in the sea by approximately 2050 that would bring certain mass starvation.
Filmed over two years, the film follows the investigative reporter Charles Clover as he confronts politicians and celebrity restaurateurs, who exhibit little regard for the damage they are doing to the oceans. Filmed across the world – from the Straits of Gibraltar to the coasts of Senegal and Alaska to the Tokyo fish market – featuring top scientists, indigenous fishermen and fisheries enforcement officials, THE END OF THE LINE is a wake-up call to the world, and not the most enjoyable film you ever see, but then it's not meant to be. With an ever increasing global population we need to act now.
The most important film documentary since AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH.
+ ME MYSELF AND MARILYN (Daya Dodds, 6 min)
A short film about Jersey resident David Gainsborough Roberts, who has a thing for Marilyn Monroe. His collection of Marilyn memorabilia includes the sequined cocktail dress she wore in SOME LIKE IT HOT (screening at the Branchage Drive-In). For years Roberts has resisted loaning his huge collection to major museums, preferring to save it for Jersey. Now the whole lot is being exhibited for the first time at the Jersey Museum, to view daily during the Branchage Festival.
Pre Screening Entertainment - CROWNE
Crowne formed early this year and have gone on to win the Channel 103 battle of the bands back in March and are currently recording their second self produced ep "The Walls are Coming Down". They have been busy gigging throughout the summer and are looking to play in the UK and Germany next year. Crowne has very eclectic tastes but blends it altogether to form catchy Indie Pop music which young and old people can enjoy together.
