RETURN of the River is a topical feature documentary of the largest dam removal and river restoration project in history, currently unfolding on the Elwha River in Washington State in the US.
The film explores an extraordinary community effort to set the river free, and shows an unlikely victory for environmental justice. There might be a lesson here for Australian governments that seem hellbent on building more dams!
Told by an ensemble cast of characters, Return of the River offers hope amid grim environmental news. The feature film is scheduled for release in spring 2014.
