Ali Tabrizi is an investigative documentary filmmaker, conservationist, and director of the renown Netflix Original documentary, Seaspiracy. He is the founder of Disrupt Studios and an inspiring speaker on sustainability, conservation, human and animal rights and the future of food.

Seaspiracy, released in March 2021, has sparked debate across the world. The documentary, which investigates the environmental and ecological impact of the fishing industry, quickly climbed to Netflix’s top ten most popular films across the globe, grabbing the attention and support of members of the public and A-list celebrities alike. Initially, Tabrizi started the project as a means to show “how incredible the oceans are,” however the narrative of the film changed upon the shocking revelations that the natural world is far from the pristine habitats presented in most other nature films. Tabrizi exposes a number of issues, ranging from the disposal of plastic trash such as fishing nets and the harm caused to marine animals as ‘bycatch,’ to accusations of slavery and corruption within the fishing industry, NGOs and governments.
