The Breach (2014)

Narratives of ecologists and conservationists are pitted against the human tendency to engineer and control in this probing documentary on the lucrative salmon-hatchery industry.

El doctor Alfred Jones (Ewan McGregor), miembro del Centro Nacional para el Fomento de la Piscicultura, debe su reputación a un trabajo pionero sobre la reproducción de los moluscos. Cuando su jefe le pide que estudie la posibilidad de introducir el salmón en Yemen, rechaza la propuesta rotundamente. Lo que ignora es que detrás del proyecto está un acaudalado jeque árabe (Amr Waked), empeñado en exportar el arte de la pesca con mosca al norte de Yemen. Sin embargo, el disparatado proyecto capta la atención de un ambicioso asesor del primer ministro, que ve en él una excelente oportunidad para mejorar el prestigio del Reino Unido en Oriente Medio y, de paso, consolidar su futuro político. Cuando el proyecto se pone en marcha, el doctor Jones se ve obligado a reconsiderar su dictamen inicial y a colaborar con la joven y atractiva representante del jeque (Emily Blunt).

With Pete Smith providing dry off-screen commentary, we watch some serious fishing: a marlin caught near Catalina, a hammerhead shark caught then wrestled in a small rowboat near Baja, the largest (721 pounds) great white shark caught to date in California waters, Chinook Indians catching salmon at Celilo Falls in Oregon - each with his designated place on the river where his ancestors stood, and, last, a crew on a boat off Mexico hoisting and hurling tuna using unbarbed hooks (baited only with a feather) as fast as they can as long as the school is there - backbreaking work - but a $25,000 catch.

Este largometraje lleno de acción, narra la dramática historia de dos hermanos y su Alaskan Malamute, que deben hacer un aterrizaje de emergencia cuando su avioneta tiene problemas de motor. Se encuentran en un entorno natural de gran belleza, pero potencialmente peligroso que deben superar juntos.

Fish are an important part of the ecosystem and the human diet. Unfortunately, overfishing has depleted many fish stocks, and the proposed solution — fish farming — is creating far more problems than it solves. Not only are fish farms polluting the aquatic environment and spreading disease to wild fish, farmed fish are also an inferior food source, in part by providing fewer healthy nutrients; and in part by containing more toxins, which readily accumulate in fat. Farmed Salmon = Most Toxic Food in the World Salmon is perhaps the most prominent example of how fish farming has led us astray. Food testing reveals farmed salmon is one of the most toxic foods in the world, having more in common with junk food than health food.1 Studies highlighting the seriousness of the problem
