‘Guardians of the Gulf’ to screen online for free in December

Guardians of the Gulf, an eye-opening documentary that explores the tumultuous relationship between the Gulf of Mexico and the conservationists determined to protect it, will screen online for free during the month of December as part of the Wild Texas Film Tour.

Filmed, directed and produced by an all-female crew, Guardians of the Gulf previously premiered at the all-digital LA Femme International Film Festival in October.

Through change, they see hope.
