Ocean Film Festival Canada World Tour 2024

The Ocean Film Festival World Tour, now in its 11th year, is back this in 2024 with a breath-taking lineup of awe-inspiring films that explore the wonders of the ocean from both aerial and underwater perspectives. This year promises to be the most exhilarating yet, with seven films set to grace the silver screen.

One of the highlights of the festival is the gripping tale of record breaking sailor Lisa Blair in her film "Ice Maiden." Embarking on a daring solo adventure, Lisa sets out to achieve the unprecedented feat of becoming the first woman to sail solo, non-stop, and unassisted around Antarctica. This treacherous journey, completed only twice before, challenges not only the limits of human endurance but also the unpredictability of the Southern Ocean's perilous conditions. As Lisa faces unexpected and life-threatening weather challenges, she must summon every ounce of courage, determination, and self-belief to not only break records but to survive in the world's most dangerous waters.

Jemima Robinson, Founder and CEO of the Ocean Film Festival World Tour, expressed her enthusiasm for this year's event, stating, "As we embark on our 11th year, the Ocean Film Festival Tour continues to be a platform for storytelling that brings the beauty, challenges, and importance of our oceans to audiences around the world. This year's lineup is a testament to the incredible journeys, talents, and environmental messages that resonate with us all. We are thrilled to share these inspiring films and celebrate the magic of the ocean with our dedicated audience."

The festival also proudly features a diverse array of films, including the heart-warming story of a surfing dog from Melbourne, a captivating anecdote of a Senegalese family with a rich maritime heritage, and "The Whale Song," an enchanting documentary that delves into the remarkable communication abilities of humpback whales through song. Audiences will be mesmerised by the artistic transformation of plastic debris into vibrant portraits, illustrating the urgent narrative of oceans in peril. Additionally, the festival will transport viewers to the beautiful seascapes of Tahiti, immersing them in the enchanting sounds of the ocean.

This year's lineup promises to captivate audiences with breathtaking cinematography, compelling narratives, and a celebration of the boundless beauty and challenges of the world's oceans.
