Silent Scream
Banned Scene 3 -- The Baltic Sea

The images in this scene were considered far too disturbing for any television audience because it gave an impression that humans are leaving marks to their environment.

Background

Finnish Broadcasting Company and French television channel Arte had started to produce a documentary about the situation of seals and porpoises in Baltic Sea. The documentary was supposed to deal among other things with the effect of global warming to these animals.

When the commission editors saw the rough-cut of the film they were shocked and stated that not even a second of the material was usable. They stated that "use of shock images and shock music" is absolutely not allowed in nature documentaries that are meant for family audiences and according to them the audience is not interested to see the damage people are causing to environment.

Because of the reaction from commission editors any use of the edition was strictly prohibited, the production ran out of money and was never finished.

These 4 clips from the rough-cut are the only evidence left of this massive film production.

  • The green stuff near 1:23 is algae, of course. Algae blooms are often triggered whenever fertilizer or any other sort of organic pollution gets dumped in the water.

    Although algae IS a plant that produces oxygen, it often dies off in huge numbers following an algae bloom. The bacteria that consume this dead algae actually give off MORE Carbon dioxide than the algae originally ate up! Fish and other aquatic animals usually suffocate because of this.

    Just thought i wanted to bring that up.

  • I picked a conservative number so people couldn't jump all over the number and loose sight of the message, but yes you are right, it's 75million NEW people every year and that's after deaths if anyone is wondering.
