This Documentary explores what life can and will look like without Coral Reefs. Told through the words of leading scientists, our film explores Stony Coral Tissue Loss disease. From its controversial origins dating back to 2014 through today, scientists still battle to understand what this disease is and how to stop it. At the heart of the issue is human impact.  Without large changes to everyday life and corporate cooperation we risk losing one of the most important animals on earth…Coral.
