This event is now sold out. No more tickets are available at this time.

Dive into a deep-sea expedition with two world-renowned shark experts as they follow
Nicole, a 12-foot great white shark, on an epic journey across an ocean teeming with
threats. As vividly depicted in the National Geographic Channel’s The Great White Odyssey,
Nicole navigates icy cold waters, dives to unfathomable depths, and outsmarts some of the
ocean’s most lethal predators on her 6,000-nautical mile, 99-day swim—the longest marine
migration ever recorded. This world premiere screening will be followed by a discussion with
shark expert Ramón Bonfil, who directed the project.

Presented as part of the Environmental Film Festival in the Nation’s Capital.
