We are super excited to announce that “The Rebel Reef” documentary will premiere on December 6, 2025, at the New Parkway Theater in Oakland, California, as part of Hidden Compass’ Ethos of Exploration event hiddencompass.net.
This isn’t just a film screening, it’s a full celebration of hope and resilience:
- Documentary Premiere: Experience the story of Tela’s Rebel Reef, a coral ecosystem that has defied the odds.
- Filmmaker Q&A: Meet the team behind the expedition, including our very own Tela Coral biologists.
- Immersive VR Dive: Step virtually beneath the waves of Tela’s reef.
- Live Violin Performance: Emmy-nominated composer Chad Cannon brings the ocean’s magic to life.
- Reception & Pathfinder Prize Announcement: Celebrate with explorers, journalists, and conservationists from around the world.

For Tela Coral, this is more than a movie night, it’s a global stage, a celebration, for our reef, our community and our mission. The Rebel Reef story began here in Honduras and now it’s inspiring audiences everywhere.
