THE LAST OCEAN
2012 | 83 min
The Ross Sea, Antarctica is the most pristine stretch of ocean on Earth, a vast, frozen landscape that teems with life – whales, seals and penguins carving out a place on the very edge of existence. Largely untouched by humans, scientists describe it as a ‘living laboratory’, a place that can teach us about the workings of all marine ecosystems. But the fishing industry has recently found its way to the Ross Sea, targeting Antarctic Toothfish which is sold as Chilean sea bass in up-market restaurants around the world, and unless it’s stopped, the natural balance of this unique ecosystem will be lost forever.
