Alaska Marine Debris

A sea of problems….

 

Inspired by a picture book, Max Romey headed to a remote beach on Alaska's coastline in search of marine debris. What he found was a different story altogether. Max had returned to Alaska after years of freelance filmmaking abroad. Hoping to use his unique blend of watercolors and filmmaking, he began highlighting complex environmental problems affecting his Alaskan community. If You Give A Beach A Bottle is a first taste of a dyslexic’s visual take on the giant scope of marine debris that litters the shores of Alaska.
