SUMMARY:Special Screening of Environmental Documentary ‘Women & The Wind’
DESCRIPTION:The University of Maine at Fort Kent (UMFK) will host a special showing of the documentary Women & The Wind on Friday\,March 13 from 6 to 8 p.m. in Nadeau Hall.  \nAdmission for community members is $10 per person. The event is free for UMFK students. All attendees will receive complimentary popcorn and a beverage. \nThis film follows three women as they sail 3\,000 miles across the North Atlantic on a 50-year-old wooden boat named Mara Noka to track how plastic waste travels from our shores to the deep ocean. \nThe voyage began in North Carolina after a year of rebuilding the vintage vessel and a month of waiting for the right winds. While skipper Kiana was a veteran of solo ocean passages\, her crew mates Lærke and Alizé began the journey with little to no sailing experience. What started as a mission to document the environmental impact of land-based waste soon evolved into a raw test of human endurance and spiritual connection. \nWomen & The Wind is more than a sailing film; it is a call to recognize the ocean as the life-force of our planet. By recording every piece of floating debris encountered daily\, the crew documented the grim reality of the North Atlantic gyre\, a large system of circulating ocean currents where plastic remains for years breaking down into microplastics.  The project was created to turn these environmental facts into a personal story that inspires people to protect our waters. \nProceeds will benefit the International Student Organization to provide bedding\, snacks and basic toiletries for new incoming international students living in the residential halls on campus. \nFor information on the event\, please contact Stacy Martin\, UMFK student life coordinator\, at stacy.martin@maine.edu. \n  \nEditor’s Note: This film is not rated and includes scenes containing nudity. Viewer discretion is advised. \n  \n  \nTags: students  \n
