Now in its sixth year, the San Francisco Ocean Film
Festival returns to present more than 40 documentary,
fictional, and animated films from around the world.
The films, many largely not available to the public,
are intended not only to entertain the audience, but,
more importantly to educate and encourage active
participation in ocean conservation. To achieve this
goal, each program is followed by in-depth discussions
with filmmakers and content experts, creating a unique
public forum on the environmental, social, and cultural
importance of marine resources. SFOFF 2009 will attract
more than 4,500 people to one of the most anticipated
and inclusive ocean events of the year.
