In this episode, we explore the deep – but often forgotten – relationship between humans and the ecosystem with vegan chef Elijah Attard and filmmaker Liam Allen. 

Together, they have created ‘Awakened’, a cinematic short film that investigates our role in nature through the lens of foraging and ocean conservation.

Elijah shares his journey from kitchen porter to vegan fine dining, and how his passion for wild foods led to his signature Roots Dining experience. 

Liam discusses the making of ‘Awakened’, featuring insights from Sea Shepherd and environmental scientists to ask if the damage to our planet is done, or if we can still take a step in the right direction.
