Send Kelp

U





2024
Documentary | 60 mins

Frances Ward, a self-professed “Seaweed Nerd” and adventurer, is about to give up everything she’s built in her life to start a kelp farm off the west coast of Canada. SEND KELP! follows Frances on an odyssey that brings her into the vast oceans of the Pacific where she intends to build one of the first farms of its kind in British Columbia

But to coax a crop from the wild Pacific, she’ll need help from scientists, wild harvesters, and entrepreneurs who know the challenges and astonishing potential of this miraculous organism. And along the way, she’ll find a glimmer of the hope that seaweed might provide not only for our planet, but for her, too. Combining breathtaking underwater cinematography (think, My Octopus Teacher) with a fun, quirky cast of characters, SEND KELP! explores many remarkable surprises about this game-changing organism and how it, along with the efforts of entrepreneurs like Frances, just might help change the world
