The third film by award-winning conservationist Rob Stewart will have its Hong Kong premiere at Palace IFC
With so many events going on during Hong Kong Art Week, one of them is especially meaningful.
On Thursday, March 28, HRH Princess Eugenie of York will be in Hong Kong to host a special premiere screening of "Sharkwater Extinction" to support the work of Project 0 and the Rob Stewart Sharkwater Foundation.
The film follows award-winning filmmaker, biologist conservationist and activist, Rob Stewart, across four continents as he investigates the corruption behind the pirate fishing trade and illegal shark fin industry.
Traversing West Africa, Spain, Panama, Costa Rica, France and North America, Rob reveals how shark fin products are still being used to make products for human consumption. His mission? To save the sharks and oceans before it's too late.
"Sharkwater Extinction" is Rob's third film, with his first and second being "Sharkwater" (2006) and "Revolution" (2012), respectively. His latest film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and has already won numerous awards in the categories of conservation, courageous filmmaking and best feature documentary.
