Salmon, reduced from a population of plentiful to pitiful, must navigate humanity’s efforts to control flow in the Pacific Northwest. The result of slowing, damming and diverting water for power and plow within the Columbia River Basin is a loss of the system’s wild tendencies to support fish. Ocean to Idaho investigates that loss by following salmon migration 850 miles from Oregon’s coast to Idaho’s wilderness. This half-hour documentary, shot solo by journalist Kris Millgate during the pandemic, highlights the people and the projects impacting salmon as they swim against the current to spawn before turning their crib into their grave. Witness the epic journey of a protected fish through eight dams, four rivers and three states as the wild tries to make its way with us in the way.
