The Museum of Natural History showed many other movies about the ocean. These included “Fisheye Fantasea”, which explores how fish see in the ocean. “Cracking the Ocean Code” is about the work of scientist J. Craig Venter. In the movie he travels around the world documenting the genetic information of small sea creatures.
At the Library of Congress, festival visitors could watch “The Silent World” directed by Jacques Cousteau and Louis Malle. When this movie came out in nineteen fifty-six, it was the first to show scuba diving exploration to the world. The movie takes place during a trip across the Mediterranean, Red Sea and Indian Ocean.
The Environmental Film Festival in Washington was started by Flo Stone. “I founded the festival in nineteen ninety-three. I’d worked on other film festivals, one on cultural diversity at the Natural History Museum in New York City. But in Washington, I thought it would be wonderful to do a festival on the environment very broadly, cooperating with many museums, universities, libraries, environmental organizations and even embassies from around the world.” Flo Stone said.
Not all movies at the festival were about oceans. One movie shown at the National Building Museum is called “Designing a Great Neighborhood: Behind the Scenes at Holiday”. It tells about building a community housing project in Boulder, Colorado. The future owners of the houses work together with different building designers to create environmentally safe houses that do not pollute.
