SANTA BARBARA PERMACULTURE NETWORK
ECO-Film Night
Presents:

Ocean Oasis, Two Worlds, One Paradise,
Baja California

Friday, April 22, 7pm, $5
CEC South Coast Watershed Resource Center
Arroyo Burro County Beach Park

Ocean Oasis is a fascinating journey into the bountiful seas and pristine 
deserts of two remarkably different, but inextricably linked 
worlds  Mexico's Sea of Cortés and the Baja California desert.

A few very special places in the world are havens for life. Resources and 
shelter draw living creatures from far and near. These places are rare. We 
call them oases.


Originally a big-screen film created for IMAX theaters, Ocean Oasis 
(www.oceanoasis.org) premiered in 2000 to support conservation, education, 
and research in Baja California.

Glide side-by-side with a graceful giant manta ray as it arches and swoops 
through water sparkling under the hot Baja California sun. Witness the 
pageant of migrating whales, the elaborate tango of courting terns, the 
battles of lumbering elephant seals. Fly over sweeping vistas of 
snow-capped mountains, vast deserts, palm oases, and mangrove 
swamps  then  plunge into astonishing underwater sequences of rarely seen 
marine life.  In the making of this extraordinary film, a team of gifted 
and dedicated scientists explored unknown territories. They trekked, flew, 
and dove to unveil intriguing secrets of isolated areas on land, air, and 
beneath the sea, allowing audiences to see remote wildernesses and 
experience captivating beauty and elusive wildlife.

Join Santa Barbara Permaculture Network and the CEC South Coast Watershed 
Resource Center on Friday, April 22, at 7pm, for a special film showing at 
the Watershed Resource Center, 2981 Cliff Drive (Arroyo Burro County Beach 
Park).  Cost $5.  For more information, please call
