Synopsis:
"Down the Mighty River" is a six-part documentary series about the Rupert River on the last summer before it is diverted for a hydro-electric project. Cree native Ernest Webb takes us on a final journey down the river, exploring the impact of this mega-project on the people and environment of the north. In Episode 1 - "The River That Heals": It’s the final summer for the Rupert River as we know it. One of the last wild rivers in North America is about to be diverted for a major hydroelectric project. Ten Cree paddlers embark on a six-week long, 600-kilometer journey down the Rupert River, to witness it one last time. For a culture that has gone through a rapid and painful social change, and for whom living off the land is no longer a viable option, this is also a voyage of healing for the Cree, into their unique cultural legacy.
