The Olympia and South Sound (Tacoma) chapters of Surfrider Foundation present the award-winning documentary, Coextinction. After a mother orca carries her dead calf for 17 days, two filmmakers spring into action, joining Indigenous leaders and scientists making a final attempt to save the last 73 Southern Resident orcas from extinction. Moving beyond a traditional wildlife documentary, Coextinction takes audiences deep into the oceans and forests of the Pacific Northwest to witness the complex systems of interconnectedness linking together ecosystem collapse, centuries of injustice against Indigenous peoples, and the frontlines of the world’s most pressing environmental threats. No species goes extinct in isolation. There will be a Q&A following the film with Victoria Obermeyer, the Executive Producer and Videographer.
Doors open at 6pm/ Show 7pm/film is 95 min.
