Ted Danson narrates this powerful, eye-opening, disturbing, conscience-raising, 90-minute, 2009 scientific documentary, which is based on journalist Charles Clover's book and is punctuated with gorgeous and colorful photography, that interviews professors (such as Pete Peterson, Ray Hilborn, Steve Palumbi, Yvonne Sadovy, Jeffrey Hutchings, Daniel Pauly, and Boris Worm), fishermen (such as Matthew Moir, Hardy McKinney, Manolo Pacheco Luis, and Adama Mbergaul), WWF bluefin tuna expert Dr. Sergi Tudela, diver Haidar El Ali, west African fisheries expert Rashid Sumaila, former U.K. fisheries minister (2003-2007) Ben Bradshaw, Nobu's managing partner Richie Notar, chefs Jamie Oliver and Chef Maxwell, and former tuna diver and whistleblower Roberto Mielgo Bregazzi in an attempt to raise public awareness about the alarming effects of overfishing (for example, the drastic depletion, if not extinction, of species such as bluefin tuna, Atlantic salmon and redfish, Southern hake, American plaice, and codfish) and to present solutions to film viewers to help prevent the extinction of marine life by 2050, including inquiring about sustainable seafood before purchase, changing eating habits, requesting that politicians reduce fishing fleets and make responsible decisions regarding the oceans, joining the campaign to promote protected marine reserves and responsible fishing, and enforcing the global fishing industry to abide by rules and change its capacity.
