After the Fish Are Gone

Documentary short created for the 2013 Environmental Film Festival in the Nation’s Capital.

In conjunction with their work on the piece “Emptying the World’s Aquarium: The dismal future of the global fishery,” which appears in the August 2013 issue of Harper’s Magazine, photographer Dominic Bracco II and writer Erik Vance produced a short documentary, After the Fish Are Gone. The film is narrated by clips from an interview with a man named Piolin, who began fishing as a teenager in the small Mexican town of Kino, on the Sea of Cortez, and who details changes in recent years to his way of life:
