“Aquaman,” actor Jason Momoa brought a stark and sober warning about the perils of deep-sea mining to the Sundance film festival on Friday, Jan. 20. | AFP

“There’s moments where I cried and got emotional” Momoa, narrating the film, told AFP, before its world premiere at the festival in Utah.

The documentary follows key players in the fledgling industry including The Metals Company, a Canadian group pushing to mine the Clarion Clipperton Zone—a vast expanse of seafloor near Hawaii. But “Deep Rising” director Matthieu Rytz told AFP that “we know so little” about the real risk to the deep ocean.

And it is just one of about 20 research institutes or corporations that hold ocean-exploration contracts, awaiting the go-ahead to begin commercial-scale mining.
