Prada Re-Nylon | Gentle Giants
Milan, February 18th, 2025 – In the third short film of the series created in collaboration with National Geographic and dedicated to Prada Re-Nylon, Sadie Sink travels to La Paz, Mexico, and the Pacific Ocean to discover the whale shark, a "gentle giant" that feeds on algae and plankton.
The episode further reinforces the goal of the docuseries to raise awareness about the importance of marine life and the need to protect it for future generations, helping viewers understand how this animal is a key element in the delicate underwater ecosystem.
With its unique diet, the whale shark helps regulate the levels of plant organisms and prevent uncontrolled growth, which would put the ecosystem in danger.
Giovanni Chimienti, marine biologist and SEA BEYONDer, together with Alberto García Baciero, whale shark expert, explain how these valuable allies of the ocean are threatened by overfishing, boat collisions, pollution, and unsustainable tourism.
Knowledge is an important tool for change. 1% of the proceeds from the Prada Re-Nylon for SEA BEYOND Collection benefit SEA BEYOND, contributing to the progress of ocean education on a global scale through a series of training initiatives for younger generations.
