Join the award-winning filmmaker of the highly acclaimed documentary Sharkwater for an inspiring discussion. "Beyond Sharkwater" recounts Rob Stewart's journey from photographer to global change maker. Hear how one man's quest to save an animal he adored changed government policy around the world, spawned dozens of NGOs, and ignited a movement to save sharks. What's more, it launched him on an even bigger challenge. With not just animals and ecosystems in danger, but humanity at stake, this hard-hitting conservationist isn't wasting any time. Become inspired by Rob's fight to conserve human life on the planet thru his new feature film project Revolution and new NGO, United Conservationists, both tackling some of the most pressing issues facing our planet... including making the world FinFree. Youšll realize one person can make a difference, and what's more, you'll want to get involved in this incredible movement.
