Lobster War is an award-winning feature film about a climate-fueled conflict between the United States and Canada over waters that both countries have claimed since the end of the Revolutionary War.
The disputed 277 square miles of sea, known as the Gray Zone, were traditionally fished by US lobstermen.
But as the Gulf of Maine has warmed faster than nearly any other body of water on the planet, the area’s previously modest lobster population has surged.
As a result, Canadians have begun to assert their sovereignty, warring with the Americans to claim the bounty.
Everyone who registers for an Eat Local Month event on Eventbrite will be automatically entered into a raffle to win a Cabot Creamery $75 Gift Box, which includes an assortment of award-winning cheese, plaid burlap bag, and a wooden cutting board.
Our other Eat Local Month events include a tour of Boston Organics and a tour and tasting of the Urban Farming Institute's new headquarters.
