Voice Above Water
Voice Above Water is the story of Wayan Nyo, a 90 year old fisherman who can no longer fish because of the amount of plastic piling up in the ocean.
Instead Wayan uses his fishing boat and net to pull trash from the water in hopes of being able to fish again.
Voice Above Water is a glimpse into how one human can use their resources to make a change and, like we are experiencing right now, a reminder that it takes all of us playing our part and coming together to accomplish something much greater than ourselves.
