A documentary film showcasing Bermuda’s leading role in conservation and the development of a blue economy could be shown at a series of international film festivals.

The Hollywood producer behind The Heart of the Sea also hoped that the film will get the backing of movie stars such as George Clooney and Michael Douglas.

The documentary short was the brainchild of Bermudian business leader Kevin Richards, the managing director of Bermuda Asset Management, and founder of the Bermuda Innovation and Technology Association.

He said the film will promote Bermuda’s “innovative ecosystem, its natural heritage and resources and as a place for the blue economy to flourish”.

Work on the project began after Mr Richards had a chance meeting with producer Ivan Williams in Beverly Hills, California, ahead of the Oscars awards ceremony last year.
