Event Information
About this Event
Preview screening of Ghost Fleet, a documentary that casts a light on the slavery in the Thai fishing industry, followed by a discussion led by Amy Scattergood of L.A. Times with Director and Director of Photography Jeffrey Waldron, chef Michael Cimarusti of Providence and Connie & Ted's and Daniel Farag, co-CEO of Pacifico Aquaculture.
Hauntingly beautiful and driven by a strong-willed heroine, Ghost Fleet follows a small group of activists who risk their lives on remote Indonesian islands to find justice and freedom for the enslaved fishermen who feed the world’s insatiable appetite for seafood. Bangkok-based Patima Tungpuchayakul, a Thai abolitionist, has committed her life to helping these “lost” men return home. Facing illness, death threats, corruption, and complacency, Patima’s fearless determination for justice inspires her nation and the world.
