Following its world premiere at the Seattle International Film Festival, Austin-produced feature Sushi: The Global Catch took home the Documentary Special Jury Award.
The jury had this to say about their choice: “The film brings to the forefront the urgent and occasionally competing arguments of overfishing that don’t necessarily have easy answers – truly a film that is food for thought.”
Sushi: The Global Catch was produced and directed by Mark Hall, edited by Sandra Adair (whom the Chron profiled last month) and Catie Cacci, with local composer extraordinaire Brian Satterwhite supplying the score.
