Redpath Museum Documentary Film Program – Summer 2017 All Films Start at 3 P.M Redpath Museum Documentary film program – Summer 2017 All films start at 3 p.m. Films may change without notice due to circumstances beyond our control. Please note: Many of these documentary films are available for loan through the McGill Library system (Redpath Library downtown and/or Macdonald campus) or through the FREE download on the KANOPY website. June 11: Climate on the Edge Part 4 of Arctic Mission (NFB), this documentary gives scientific context to the controversy and debate on climate change. Accessible interviews with climatologists, glaciologists, astrophysicists and oceanographers, juxtaposed with stunning footage, bring understanding to the impact of the melting of the Arctic permafrost and release of greenhouses gases that affect our whole planet. June 18: Empty Oceans, Empty Nets: The Race to Save Marine Fisheries (PBS, 2002) A documentary exploring the declining state of fishing and how communities of fishermen, scientists and environmentalist restore them. Many marine scientists agree that the conduct of the global fishing fleet is now the number one human activity threatening the health of our oceans. Throughout the ages, the world has enjoyed a vast and unlimited ocean, yielding abundant seafood. But increasing demand, new technologies, and burgeoning coastal populations are straining the limits of the ocean’s ability to sustain healthy fish populations. Narrated by Peter Coyote, Empty Oceans, Empty Nets is a powerful documentary on the rapidly declining fish harvests of the world. AND Oceans (Disney, 2010) Journey in to the depths of a wonderland filled with mystery, beauty and power. Oceans is a spectacular story, narrated by Pierce Brosnan, about remarkable creatures under the sea. It's an unprecedented look at the lives of these elusive deepwater creatures through their own eyes. Incredible state-of-the- art-underwater filmmaking will take your breath away as you migrate with whales, swim alongside a great white shark and race with dolphins at play. June 25 and July 2: Museum closed July 9: Arctic Tale (2007) Arctic Tale, an animal-centric documentary, uses unadulterated authentic footage to capture close up impressions of a walrus pup and polar bear cub. With these lovable tykes leading the way, the film swims directly and deeply into disturbing environmental issues like global warming and pollution and, most especially, the shrinking arctic ice. July 16: Sushi: The Global Catch (2012) Though described as a documentary about the history of sushi, this film actually explores the impact of sushi consumption on the ocean and it’s potentially devastating effects. From humble beginnings as a simple food sold by Japanese street vendors, sushi has exploded into an international phenomenon in the past 30 years. SUSHI: THE GLOBAL CATCH is a feature-length documentary shot in five countries exploring the history, problems and future of this popular cuisine. Much of sushi's rich cultural tradition that began in Tokyo is changing as raw fish now appear from cities like Warsaw and New York to small towns worldwide. But what is the cost? Will the worldwide hunger for sushi continue to grow until wild fish vanish, or will new technology like aquaculture keep plates full? Can sustainable sushi restaurants satisfy consumers or will competition for declining resources drive prices so high that only a few can afford raw fish? AND Moana (2016) July 23: Vancouver Island: River of Life (2015) Vancouver Island, running along Canada's southern West coast, has the richest Pacific wildlife, thinks to the ideal fishing grounds for salmon, who produce abundant eggs in its many rivers and lakes, the tiny surviving percentage reaching the ocean trying to return there, spawn and die five years later. They cater for many predators, from egg-eating birds to vultures, eagles and black bears, and even fertilize the trees enough to grow thrice as fast. Seals, giant octopuses and orca (killer whales) are among the marine predators enjoying the abundant seafood. AND Paddle to the Sea (NFB) July 30: Before the Flood (2016) A devoted environmentalist, actor Leonardo DiCaprio was named the United Nations Messenger on Climate Change in 2014. He's by no means a scientist, but his tremendous fame affords him the global platform and unfettered access required to effectively advocate for the preservation of our planet. With great determination and investigative curiosity, DiCaprio embraces this challenge through the format for which he is best known: the cinema. The feature-length documentary Before the Flood represents the fruits of his efforts to educate himself and others on this pressing crisis. The film takes a sweeping and all-encompassing view of the slowly building catastrophe that is global warming. DiCaprio plays inquisitive host to many of the world's top climate scientists and assorted leaders who have remained at the forefront of the issue. AND St. Lawrence: Stairway to the Sea (NFB) August 6: Moving Art: Oceans (2014) 25 minutes. The Moving Art series makes nature into art by combining beautiful cinematography and music, so chances are you won’t learn much from this 25-minute film. But you will get a chance to enjoy the majesty and beauty of the ocean in images. AND Arctic Ocean (National Geographic) 25 minutes. Crowning the top of the world, the frozen Arctic Ocean provides an unlikely home for a spectrum of enchanting creatures. Above the ice and below, beluga whales, narwhals, bowhead whales, walruses, and murres prosper. Narrated by National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Sylvia Earle. AND 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea August 13: Force of Nature: The David Suzuki Movie This feature documentary profiles the life and work of world-renowned Canadian scientist, educator, broadcaster and activist David Suzuki on the occasion of his last lecture in 2009—a lecture he describes as “a distillation of my life and thoughts, my legacy, what I want to say before I die.” As Suzuki reflects on his family history—including the persecution of Japanese Canadians during WWII—and his discovery of the power and beauty of the natural world, we are spurred to examine our own relationship to nature, scientific knowledge, and sustainability throughout modernity and beyond. AND Cries from the Deep (NFB) August 20: Great Lakes, Bad Lines (2016) Many environmental documentaries recount the aftermath of a grave disaster. Great Lakes, Bad Lines is refreshingly different in this regard. The film concerns the inevitable erosion and malfunction of Enbridge Line 5, a Canadian-owned pipeline that stretches across over 500 miles and transports 23 million gallons of oil through much of Michigan's Great Lakes on a daily basis. The line was built over 60 years ago, and is in urgent need of repair. Experts agree that something needs to be done, or the region will inevitably suffer one of the worst environmental catastrophes in recorded history. The film is a convincing and proactive effort to raise awareness and provoke change. AND The Whale (Director Suzanne Chisholm) August 27: Chevron vs. the Amazon The oil industry giant Chevron began operating in Ecuador's Amazon rain forest in 1964. Over the course of thirty years, this majestic environmental wonder became the victim of unregulated corporate abuse and greed. By the time the corporation vacated the area in 1992, their toxic footprint had brought about 1700 times more damage to the environment than the infamous Exxon Valdez oil spill in the United States. Empire Files host Abby Martin visits the scene of the crime in Chevron vs. the Amazon, and uncovers the extent to which the criminal acts of industry have spoiled the riches of a tropical paradise. The Amazon plays host to hundreds of thousands of unique species of plant life, insects, animals, as well as an equally diverse human population. All of this came under threat when Chevron established operations in the region over 50 years ago. Sept. 3: Museum closed Sept 10: No Fish Where to go (NFB, |2014|12 minutes) AND Tuktu and the Ten Thousand Fishes (NFB|1967|14 minutes) AND Operation Conservation (NFB/1979|23 minutes) AND Sharkwater Sept. 17: Martha of the North (NFB 2008|1 h 23 minutes) Sept 24: Fishing at the Stone Weir: Part 1 and Part 2 (NFB Quentin Brown|1967) Oct. 1: A climate of change (2014) Produced as a prelude to the 2015 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Canadian production A Climate of Change relies on the expert insights of several revered scientists to debunk the skepticism of global warming deniers and advocate for greater urgency in preventing further planetary abuse. Armed with easily understandable testimony and clear and concise evidence, the film hopes to put an end to the debate and begin the search for real solutions to an ever-worsening global crisis. The scientists featured in the film speak to the various aspects of the climate change crisis. Dr. Kimberly Strong, a Professor Physics at the University of Toronto, dedicates her professional research career to the measurement and study of gasses and other pollutants in the atmosphere. Her findings indicate a dangerous trend of ozone depletion. Dr. John Smol, Professor of Biology at Queen's University, speaks of the changes occurring in the Arctic region. From there, scientists can comfortably predict the global changes to come. What they find in the Arctic is immensely troubling, as ancient ponds and lakes are shallowing at an alarming rate. Richard Peltier, the Director of the Centre for Global Change Science, outlines the dangers inherent in our rising sea levels, which are caused in significant measure by melting ice sheets and warming climates. AND Sonic Sea Oct. 8: Museum closed Oct. 15: TWO Water Brothers episodes (about 25 minutes each) Water Everywhere…but not a drop to drink. Canadians are big water users and are also advanced in water treatment and distribution technologies.

  • The History of Nihonbashi Uogashi
    — Unearthing the Four-Hundred-Year History of a Wholesale Fish Market — The History of Nihonbashi Uogashi Part 2: The Popularity of Fish in Edo By Issei Tomioka A book titled, Edo Hanjoki, by Terakado Seiken (1796–1868) that described the manners and customs of the people of Edo near the end of the Edo period (1603–1867), notes that the people loved fish so much that they said their bones would fall apart if they went without fish for three days. Several tens of thousands of fish were consumed each day. This book also depicted, in a humorous man- ner, the dynamic way in which the Uogashi, or wholesale fish market, handled their sea of fish. Originally, the Uogashi began as a way to supply fish to the shogunate. As it developed, however, the fish-eating culture of Edo flourished. Let’s take a look at the fish-eating culture that bloomed in Edo through events that took place in the Uogashi. Tokugawa Ieyasu Loved have been, “Bring me good fish.” The establishment of the Fish Uogashi as a way to supply fish to the shogunate may have Shortly after Mori Magoemon’s been the result of Ieyasu’s fondness for fish. group of fishermen from Tsukuda Illustrations village, on the northern shore of The Uncompensated Supply of Fish to the Kazan Mori (Property of the Wholesales Osaka bay, started net fishing in the Shogunate Co-operative of Tokyo Fish Market) sea near Edo, they began catching a How was fish supplied to the shogunate?

  • The History of Sushi
    DreamReader.net History – Beginner level The History of Sushi Sushi was first made over 2000 years ago in Southeast Asia. Back then, people used to put salt on the fish to keep it from going bad. They would put the salted fish in a container with rice. After a few months, the fish could be eaten but the rice was thrown away. This sushi became popular all over China and it was introduced into Japan. The Japanese preferred to eat rice together with fish, so they ate the rice and fish together while the fish was still raw. Later in the Edo period, Japanese people started making special rice for sushi. They combined rice with vinegar and vegetables. At the beginning of the 19th century, food stalls started selling sushi in Tokyo. It was very popular. Then in the 20th century, chefs from Tokyo started moving to other parts of Japan. They helped to make sushi popular all over Japan. Recently sushi has become a popular food in many other countries. Sushi is now eaten every day by millions of people all over the world.

For this purpose qualitative and quantitative researches were organized and held for one and a half years. Another object of the research was to show prof- itability of the sushi-bar in quickly changing political and economical situation for the town, which depends on tourist flow a lot. Such sources as literature, questionnaires for citizens and visitors of the town, interviews with qualified teachers of Saimaa University and independent Lithua- nian and Russian sushi-cookers’ opinions are used in thesis. As the result of this project a negative answer has been reached for the main question of a sushi-bar is interesting and attractive in Imatra nowadays. The re- search shows that for progressive and developing future of the sushi-bar better political, financial and economical conditions are required: lack of incoming tour- ists from Russia, decreasing salaries of locals, increasing level of unemploy- ment and losing of interest for foreign customers to come to Imatra shows nega- tive conditions to plan it now.

  • The History of Sushi
    SUSHI TRAIN The History of Sushi Originally raw fish was pressed between layers of salt and White Plate 5.50 Egg Nigiri weighed by stone. After a few weeks the stone was removed and replaced with a light cover, a few months after that, the Cucumber Small Roll fermented fish was placed on rice and ready to eat. Avocado Small Roll Some restaurants in Tokyo still serve this original style sushi, Deep Fried Bean Curd called Naresushi (made with freshwater carp). Its flavour is so strong that it obscures the fishes identity altogether (Naresushi is an acquired taste). It wasn’t till the 18th century that a chef Blue Plate 6.50 named Yohei decided to forego the fermentation and serve Salmon Nigiri sushi in something resembling its present form. It became very Boiled Prawn Nigiri popular. Squid Nigiri Jellyfish Salad Two styles of sushi subsequently emerged. Firstly, Edo style sushi from Tokyo and secondly, Kansai style sushi from the city Seaweed Salad of Osaka. Salmon Small Roll Cooked Tuna Big Roll The Edo style from Tokyo features a select bit of seafood on a Vegetable Big Roll small pad of seasoned rice (called nigiri sushi). This is the most familiar form of sushi outside Japan. The Kansai style sushi is more elaborate and consists of Yellow Plate 7.50 seasoned rice mixed with other ingredients and formed into Chicken Teriyaki Big Roll decorative packages (mostly “rolls”). Deep Fried Chicken Big Roll At GPO we offer both styles of sushi as well as sashimi, hand Salmon & Cucumber Inside Outside rolls & tempura.

  • Comments Roll Sushi, Roll: Defining “Sushi Grade” for the Consumer
    Comments Roll Sushi, Roll: Defining “Sushi Grade” for the Consumer and the Sushi Bar Brandt T. Bowman* I. INTRODUCTION Behind the glass partition of the sushi counter, a young sushi chef meticulously slices a fresh piece of Bluefin tuna, carefully molds it around a ball of vinegared rice, and artfully arranges it for service. The young chef exercises ancient precision, but such a display is neither for the swanky hipster at the table across the room nor for the self-indulgent businessman seated at the bar. Instead, the young chef exhibits such craftsmanship with honor because his ancestors have taught him to; he is the modern-day samurai.1 The honor ends at the sushi counter however; globalization and capitalism have diluted the ancient art in exchange for mass production and profit margin. This departure from tradition does more than diminish sushi’s cultural significance: it creates new risks when ancient * J.D.
