Time & Tide
Documentary
"Time & Tide" began in April 2000 upon reading an article about how the South Pacific nation of Tuvalu signed a deal with the Dot TV Company for $50,000,000 in exchange for the rights to license Tuvalu's URL, .tv. Six months later we were on a plane to Tuvalu, where we uncovered another major event facing them: sea level rise. Over the course of 5 years, we made a film that addressed both of these issues - globalization and global warming - through the eyes of a group of expatriates returning home for the first time in 20 years. It was an incredible experience.
