lobster caught in nicaragua has been exported to the ited states, and sold via distributors like the sysco corporation, the largest food service distributor in north america. >> since over 90% of the lobster that's caught in nicaragua is exported to the u.s. and consumed in the.s., on a consumer level, we can do a lot to incentivize the--the industry. never before have we been so far from the sources of our food, so i think one of our objectives, one of our goals with this film was to educate viewers, to educate an american audience about one source of our food, and the value chain or the supply chain behind that, which is, in this case, lobster. >> people often ask us, you know, what-- do--what do we want the film to achieve, ultimately? what's the--the bigger message? i--i think it's a complicated question. i think, wh--when i go back and i think about my experiences on the coast and working with these people and being on the boats and--and seeing the level of suffering, uh, that some of the men experience and the families that experience it, i think there are several ideas at--at play.
