Ocean Film Festival World Tour
The Ocean Film Festival World Tour is bringing a new collection of ocean-themed films to venues around the UK this autumn. Now in its 10th year, the Ocean Film Festival is a cinematic celebration of the planet’s oceans, starring mind-boggling marine creatures, thrilling watersports and highlighting the profound impact of a lifestyle connected to the ocean.
“We started the Ocean Film Festival World Tour with big dreams, not only to inspire the world to explore and enjoy our oceans, but also to protect and respect them,” said festival founder Jemima Robinson.
“With a passion for film and all things ocean, I wanted the Ocean Film Festival World Tour to become an avenue for bringing people together to celebrate Mother Nature. We have done this through sharing unique stories from independent filmmakers from around the globe, and now set our sights towards the next 10 years.”
Alejandro Agag, co-founder and chairman of UIM E1 World Championship, said: “Tom is a winner and will bring his incredible spirit to our races. Alongside Rafael Nadal, Didier Drogba, Sergio Perez and other big names that we will announce soon, he will be fighting for victory at every race. To have a personality like Tom is a huge boost.”
The Ocean Film Festival originated in Australia, and in its first 10 years has been shown in 14 countries, showcasing films from 89 independent filmmakers and donating more than £21,000 to ocean charities. The 2023 UK tour is supported by the Marine Conservation Society, and presented by PADI, the world’s largest diver organisation.
The short films are introduced by a compère, and each screening will see a free prize giveaway to win ocean-related goodies.
