Media That Matters Film Festival: One More Dead Fish: About
ABOUT THE FILM More About One More Dead Fish from Directors and Producers Allan and Stefan Forbes My family spent our summers in a small fishing community in Southwest Nova Scotia, observing firsthand the Canadian government’s short-term, industrialized, assembly-line approach to managing the fisheries and the environmental destruction it wrought.
We made the film on a shoestring budget, soon running out of money for sound people, which forced me to shoot, record sound, and edit by myself – talk about independent media! But I was inspired by my 82-year-old Dad rousting me out of bed at 3 in the morning to go out in a fall gale and shoot fishing boats in 30-foot-wave.
Handliners in Nova Scotia are still desperately trying to survive, eking out a meager living on tiny quotas, while bottom trawlers rake in short-term profits, destroy the environment, catch spawning females, and discard huge amounts of fish.
