This short documentary introduces us to the mysterious milkfish. Found mainly in British Columbia’s Fraser River, it is a fish prized for being a rich source of protein, which is found both in its flesh, and in the milk-like substance it secretes. While the species itself was discovered over 60 years ago, the footage shot for this documentary was only recently discovered among the NFB’s archives. Due to its low profile, the fish has flourished in the wild and is poised to become a massive sustainable food source for generations to come.
