PROTECTING WHAT’S PRECIOUS

ROLE: SERIES PRODUCER

AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON WATERBEAR HERE

Protecting What’s Precious is a short doc about Ezgi Seydam and the vital research work she is undertaking to monitor and reduce bycatch in the Mediterranean. The film focuses on her background and inspiration, as we understand how a love of the ocean as a child led to a career looking after it. We give the audience an insight into the work she does but also understand what needs to be done going forward to protect the fragile ecosystem above and below the waves of the Mediterranean Sea.
