Meko
Run Time: 90 min.
A film 7-years in the making, Meko is the story of man and community who have weathered the storm. Join filmmaker Harrison Buck on an in-depth look into the macro-effects of climate change on delicate coastal communities like the Bahamas Outer Islands through the lens of legacy fly fishing guide and angler Omeko “Meko” Glinton.
Co-starring female guide and angler Abbie Schuster, Buck’s film gives viewers a deeper look into the world of elite fishing guides and in particular – how Glinton’s world was turned upside down after the devastation caused by Hurricane Dorian. Featuring stunning visuals of the Bahamian ecosystem and a 100% carbon-neutral production, Meko is a tale of human resilience in the face of unspeakable destruction and personal loss. But at its core – Meko is a testament to the strength of the human soul and how fly fishing might be the key to a sustainable future in the Bahamas Outer Islands.
A Q&A with the filmmakers follows the screening.
