ABOUT THE FILM
Wild salmon have been driven to the brink of extinction by habitat destruction, over harvesting and dams blocking access to spawning grounds. Hatcheries and fish farms originally promised an easy fix, comforting us with the promise that these keystone species could be preserved through artificial propagation. We were wrong. Mass producing domesticated fish has only hastened the demise of wild fish-and if there's a future for these irreplaceable species and the communities that rely on them, it's in the realization that the best hatchery is a healthy river.
