ALBATROSS

Directed, Written and Edited by Chris Jordan

On a remote atoll in the North Pacific Ocean, albatross chicks are dying, bodies filled with plastic. ALBATROSS unflinchingly shows the horror and grief of this tragedy, but ultimately brings us to a deeply felt experience of beauty and love for life on Earth. Stepping outside of traditional documentary film style, ALBATROSS delivers a profound message of reverence and renewal.

“With my warm regards, and those of my team, we thank you for your engagement. This has been a long and challenging journey, made with the support of many generous, creative, and steadfast friends. Now we are thrilled to let ALBATROSS take off into the world as an offering of love, beauty, and hope for our times.”
