Synopsis
Hundreds of feet beneath the ocean surface and emerald islands of Howe Sound lies prehistoric glass sponge reefs thought extinct for over 40 million years. Their discovery has catalyzed a ragtag group of citizen scientists, who are putting their money and lives on the line to protect these ecologically significant animals. Outside interests are divided over the future of development in Howe Sound, jeopardizing the lives of these animals. This film explores our current state of ecological uncertainty and the people attempting to ensure the survival of a piece of our planet, before it is too late.
