About the film:
WHERE HAVE ALL THE FISH GONE? The first major feature documentary film revealing the impact of overfishing on our oceans; we see firsthand the effects of our global love affair with fish as food.
The film examines the imminent extinction of blue-fin 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 that would bring certain mass starvation. 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.
Scientists predict that if we continue fishing as we are now, we will see the end of most seafood by 2048. The End of the Line points to solutions that are simple and doable, but political will and activism are crucial to solve this international.
