"Upstream, Downriver: Uniting for Water Justice" takes viewers into the heart of the battle for water justice. Powerful stories with frontline community activists are interwoven with historical context about landmark regulations that significantly reduced water pollution in the U.S. but failed to serve disadvantaged communities that are hardest hit by today's climate crisis.

Upstream, Downriver: Uniting for Water Justice (OC)

"Upstream, Downriver: Uniting for Water Justice" follows frontline activists fighting for water justice, revealing how landmark pollution laws improved conditions for some but left marginalized communities behind as climate change intensifies droughts, flooding, and unequal access to clean water.

A lost Eden drowned under Lake Powell re-emerges, revealing the follies of the past and a new way forward for the Colorado River. What The River Knows is an advocacy short-doc that explores this unique inflection point in a centuries-long history: at the same time that we are met with the need to redesign our systems of water management in the west, we are presented with the opportunity to restore one of the most stunning landscapes on the planet.

What The River Knows (OC)

For the past several years, a lost Eden drowned under Lake Powell has been re-emerging, revealing the follies of the past and a new way forward for the Colorado River.
