https://hmnh.harvard.edu/event/lobster-war "Lobster War" is an
award-winning documentary film about a conflict between the United
States and Canada over waters that both countries have claimed since
the end of the Revolutionary War. The disputed 277 square miles of sea
known as the Gray Zone were traditionally fished by U.S. lobstermen.
But as the Gulf of Maine has warmed faster than nearly any other body
of water on the planet, the area's previously modest lobster
population has surged. As a result, Canadians have begun to assert
their sovereignty, warring with the Americans to claim the bounty.
Directed by David Abel, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter at The
Boston Globe, and Andy Laub, an award-winning documentarian. Abel and
Laub are also producers of the acclaimed Discovery Channel documentary
Sacred Cod. See more at www.lobsterwar.com. A Q&amp;A with filmmaker
David Abel will follow the screening. Film Screening (unrated, 74
min.) Free event parking at the 52 Oxford Street Garage.
