There is so little we know about our planet's oceans. The members of the Ocean Observatories Initiative, a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded program, work together to gather data that will teach us about life in the oceans and how to care for them for future generations.

Director Statement

I am a first time filmmaker and I'm excited to share my documentary short, "Offshore". This zero budget film was created when I was a student volunteer on the R/V Sikuliaq, many miles off the Oregon and Washington coast.
