Netflix Documentary Screening: Chasing Coral 
Saturday, March 3, 1 - 3 pm
 
The Cresskill Environmental Commission (CEC) is hosting a free screening of the Netflix original documentary Chasing Coral. As the filmmakers explain, coral reefs around the world are vanishing at an unprecedented rate. In Chasing Coral, a team of divers, photographers, and scientists set out on a thrilling ocean adventure to discover why, and to reveal this underwater mystery to the world. As the movie poster explains, "What lies below, reveals what lies ahead." Don't miss this film that the New York Times has called an "emotional race against time."

 Complimentary popcorn and beverages will be served at the screening.  For more information, send a message to [email protected].
