Out of Plain Sight documents the devastating effects of toxic waste that was dumped into the ocean off the coast of California 80 years ago. Journalist Rosanna Xia and researcher David Valentine piece together the events that have created an outbreak of disease and cancers in sea mammals and possibly in us. The devastating consequences of throwing our waste into the ocean continue to haunt the world today.
Please join us for the screening of Out of Plain Sight, a conversation with filmmakers, and a panel discussion. Use the discount code: FACT to show your support for FaCT and for our film. https://www.clevelandfilm.org/films/out-of-plain-sight-2025
