Rivers are habitats of rich biodiversity vital to humans and wildlife. This short film program is the tale of two East Coast waterways, one in peril and the other waiting to be explored.


Stick around after the shorts for an exclusive filmmaker conversation.

The Patuxent River is a crucial tributary of the Chesapeake Bay. Despite the central role the river has played in the history of the Bay's environmental movement and abundant conservation resources funneled to it over the years, it remains polluted. Its Riverkeeper, Fred Tutman, advocates for environmental justice to be established throughout the watershed.
