SUMMARY:Streams of Thought Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:As part of Whatcom Water Week\, Streams of Through Film Festival will feature four films at the Pickford Film Center: \nEbb and Flow: Sept. 16\, 6:30-8:30pm \nhis film follows 93yr old Jerry (Eiichi) Yamashita’s recounting of the family history to his son Patrick\, around a campfire on their shellfish tidelands. Relying on Jerry’s excellent memory and rare archival footage\, we are taken on a journey spanning three generations\, beginning with Jerry’s father Masahide’s immigration from Tokyo to Seattle in 1900. Arriving with nothing but the clothes on his back and an irrepressible entrepreneurial spirit\, his many years of seemingly unending struggle\, are revealed. Eventually\, his talent for problem solving would play a pivotal role in saving the west coast shellfish farming industry from complete collapse in 1930\, with a Japanese Oyster. Ebb and Flow Trailer \nAlso showing with the feature film are locally produced short films: \nServants of the Salish Sea and Oystertopia\, Stewards of the Salish Sea \nFilm producers for the feature film and the shorts will be available to answer questions! \nSonic Sea: Sept. 17\, 1:00-3:00pm \nOceans are a sonic symphony. Sound is essential to the survival and prosperity of marine life. But man-made ocean noise is threatening this fragile world.
