Blue is a cinematic song for our oceans; beautiful, intimate and grand. Fearlessly truth-telling, yet passionately hopeful. See this film and you will want to rise up with the waves’

This month’s DVD competition is for something a bit different, not your usual crime, horror or comedy, but a documentary that is close to my heart and certainly delivers on crime and horror, because what mankind is doing to the oceans of this world is certainly criminal and horrible.

Did you know, that half of all marine life has been lost in the last 40 years? By 2050 there will be more plastic in the sea than fish.

Blue is a powerful feature documentary from renowned film-maker Karina Holden (Magical Land Of Oz), which had a theatrical and is now available digitally and on DVD from Sparky Pictures.

Blue is fascinating and tells an important story that needs to be told and takes us on a journey across the seas introducing us to some of the passionate advocates for ocean preservation.

Meet Lucas Handley, Madison Stewart, Philip Mango, Dr Jennifer Lavers, Tim Silverwood, Mark Dia and Valerie Taylor, who have one common aim, to be guardians of the ocean and inspire others to join their work to protect the world we live in. They are defending habitats, campaigning for smarter fishing, combating marine pollution and fighting for the protection of keystone species.

The ocean can no longer be thought of as a place of limitless resources, a dumping ground, immune to change or decline, and we need to act on that knowledge before it’s too late. But we do need to act now.
