One of the best films of DOC NYC and of 2024 OUT OF PLAIN SIGHT is a look at how thousands of drums of DDT were dropped into the ocean ten miles from Los Angeles. The drums are decaying, polluting the ocean and causing an epidemic of cancer in the sea life. Most frighteningly it is putting our lives at risk because the chemicals are now in the fish and crustaceans we consume.
This film blew me away. A meaty investigation that is the cinematic equivalent to reading a big book on the subject. This film is going to tell you everything you need to know to scare the snot out of you. If you need to know how bad it is we see what the effects of the DDT on seals who are coming ashore in such bad condition that they only thing we can do is euthanize them
I was moved.
I can’t explain how great this film is. Just see it.
Highly recommended.
