Cod Story

About This Movie

So, 'Cod Story' is this deep dive into the catastrophic collapse of the Canadian cod fisheries back in '92. It’s not just a documentary, it's a reflection on how we talk about and manage our natural resources. The tone feels somber but also urgent, which really pulls you in. The pacing has this almost rhythmic quality, moving between expert interviews and archival footage that paints a vivid picture of the past. What’s striking is the way it challenges you to think about our past mistakes and how language and perception shape our interactions with nature. It’s distinctive in its approach, very thought-provoking, without being preachy. Definitely a film that lingers in your thoughts long after viewing.
