Excerpt (Audio:: English, no subtitles)
The industrialisation that took place in the oceans in the last century is a reflection of events on land. Industrial fishing, habitat destruction, loss of species and pollution have put the oceans at risk. The nature of the oceans is being irretrievably changed.
"Blue" is a provocative journey into the realm of the oceans and documents the critical state in which the marine world currently finds itself.
"Blue" convinced our film jury all along the line. The film shows with beautiful, sensual scenes, at the same time in a very brutal way, comprehensively the problems with which the oceans are confronted today.
It is particularly impressive how the documentary manages the balancing act between seriously researched, factual content and aesthetic, partly poetic stylistic tools.
"Blue" awakens appreciation for other living beings and has the potential to influence our future actions.
