Finding the Virgo film
"Finding the Virgo" documentary is presented by Dr. Lauren Vuong, Berkeley graduate, San Francisco attorney, and the producer of this film directed by Barre Fong. Her associate, Commander Stevenson, is a New York based maritime law attorney who presents the legal implications of rescues at sea for the mariner. Dr. Vuong was a refugee rescued with her family by the coordinated efforts of two US flag tankers, the “LNG Virgo” and the “USNS Sealift Antarctic”.
This is typically an event that draws in current and former mariners, attorneys, and even some former refugees and their families. It includes question and answer sessions for Dr. Vuong and Commander Stevenson. They also discuss the technological advances and legal ramifications of AI for the benefit of future Bay Area grads and tailor this discussion for the mariner. This film has been presented at Mass Maritime, SUNY Maritime College, and other venues throughout the country, including the Sausalito Yacht Club.
