The Alaska Ocean Film Festival features nine short films on saltwater adventure, coastal cultures, and marine science from Alaska and around the world. The films explore our connection with the ocean and connect us to a larger, saltier world.

It’s a short notice, but Cinevic is looking for short films under 20 minutes in duration from Yukon, Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon. Deadline for submission is Wednesday, February 29. See more info: Cinevic Call for Submissions.

Both the writer/director, Andrew Okpeaha MacLean, and producer, Cara Marcous, of “On The Ice” will be in town to host the Juneau premiere of their new film.

Andrew, who grew up in Barrow, returned to his hometown to shoot a movie about two best friends dealing with a death on the north slope ice that he wrote.

They will attend the shows on Wednesday and Thursday night and host a question and answer session after the screening at the Gold Town Nickelodeon.
