25.01.2022 We’re excited to bring you another online film screening on Adventure+ For all those experiencing the One Ocean Film Tour nostalgia, this one’s for you! Mike De...Gruy filmed the oceans for more than three decades becoming as famous for his on camera storytelling as for his glorious, intimate visions of the sea and the creatures who live in it. Inspired to share his legacy as a filmmaker and storyteller, and to spread his mission for protecting the ocean, his wife and film-making partner Mimi deGruy returned to the edit room to produce Diving Deep: The Life and Times of Mike deGruy. Diving Deep: The Life and Times of Mike deGruy, tells that story and while it celebrates Mike and all he accomplished in his amazing career, it also highlights what he cared most about at the time of his death: we are destroying the ocean before we even know what’s there. If Mike deGruy were alive today he would be spending all his energy to fight on behalf of the ocean, for continued exploration, particularly of the deep-sea, research, understanding and ultimately encouraging a reciprocal relationship with it before it is too late. Diving Deep: The Life And Times Of Mike deGruy (including a Q&A with filmmaker Mimi deGruy) will screen next Tuesday the 21 July at 7.30pm on www.adventureplus.com Get your tickets now: https://bit.ly/3euDSYM
