Director: Ernest Webb & Lisa Roth | Producer: Christina Fon & Linda Ludwick
Focus Years: 2010 | Country: Canada
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 5 - "One Less River": The Rupert is one of the few remaining wild rivers. The Cree are sharing their land for development for the future generations all over Quebec. What is the environmental impact of all this kind of development on the territory, and more globally, on our climate? We visit Smokey Hill, a key traditional site for the Cree where hydro’s environmental mitigation efforts extend to mitigate the cultural impacts as well. We meet brothers that were torn apart by their father’s decision to allow major development on their trapline, and learn how they united and came to understand the elders’ resolution.
