Petoskey Film Theater presents 'Sharkwater'

September 17th - 19th, 2008
Office: Cultural/Art Event
(Wed. Fri. )
Time: 7:30 PM
Location: Petoskey Public Library, Carnegie Building

The Petoskey Film Theater will be showing the award-winning documentary "Sharkwater" (PG) on Wednesday and Friday, September 17 and 19, 7:30 pm at the Petoskey Public Library, Carnegie Building. Donations are appreciated. For more information on upcoming films call the PFT Movie Hotline at 758-3108.

One of mankind's greatest fears -- the shark -- is convincingly cast in a sympathetic light by the award-winning documentary Sharkwater. Wildlife photographer-turned-filmmaker Rob Stewart is the driving force behind the film, and if his on-camera presence occasionally tilts towards self-aggrandizement, it's countered by the breathtaking quality of his footage of sharks and his compassionate argument for their protection. Stewart's coverage of the sharkfin trade is equally compelling, and scenes of wholesale slaughter of sharks for their fins (a delicacy and alleged medicine in Asian countries) are likely to disturb. Viewers may be split on Stewart's hands-on approach to combating the practice, which includes taking on pirates and police, but his intentions are honorable and do much to bring this alarming situation to light. For filmmaker Rob Stewart exploring sharks began as an underwater adventure. What it turned into was a beautiful and dangerous life journey into the balance of life on earth. Driven by passion fed from a life-long fascination with sharks Stewart debunks historical stereotypes and media depictions of sharks as bloodthirsty man-eating monsters and reveals the reality of sharks as pillars in the evolution of the seas.

Filmed in visually stunning high definition video Sharkwater takes you into the most shark rich waters of the world exposing the exploitation and corruption surrounding the world's shark populations. Stewart's remarkable journey of courage and determination changes from a mission to save the world's sharks into a fight for his life and that of humankind.
