The geographical coverage of the UK screenings, although better than the poultry one for the whole of Oz, was pretty poor. I remember how easy it was to get to a screening of 'The Inconvenient Truth'!

You will certainly get a chance to see the film. We cannot give you an exact date as to when the DVD will be released because it all depends on the date the film finishes screening in cinemas in Australia. You have to allow a certain amount of time between screening in cinemas and releasing a DVD. That is a requirement of the cinemas. Best wishes, Hannah Hi Jean-Paul,

Australia is surrounded by more water than any other continent. We have a huge abundace of fish and an even healthier fishing industry. I would have thought you'd want us to see your movie. I live in Sydney and am part of a group trying to raise awareness for this very problem. I still cannot get an answer from any of you as to when and if you will produce a DVD. Is audience profits more important that actually getting the message accross. I'd congratulate you on a great movie but as yet i have not seen it (even though most of Europe has as has the US). I'd be happy to receive a reply. jderonse@bigpond.net.au Regards Jean-Paul If you felt that this movie was supposed to be seen by as many people as possible why only show it in Melbourne.

Glad you enjoyed the movie I think your idea for T shirts is really good. In the next few weeks we are going to get the shop up and running.

I disagree with you about the sound-track I love the music .

The panel responded that whales aren't doing that badly at the moment. it got me thinking about how "Save the Whales" T-shirts and bumper stickers were everywhere a decade or two ago and the impact all that exposure had on this woman's generation. The Bluefin certainly seems to have iconic potential and since it is "at the front lines", as you put it, of the battle to save wild fish, how about "Save the Bluefin" t-shirts. Sell them for $20 here and cheap to school-age kids in Italy, Spain, Portugal, and Japan. Shame the bastards wiith their own kids. Regarding the film: I thought the overall quality was good. The soundtrack was not so hot--too loud, often distracting, inappropriate, and at times downright annoying. Thanks for this important film.
