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 6 - "More Power than We Think": The doors close on the Rupert Dam: the diversion process is has begun, and the river will change forever. It’s a sad moment. Cree culture and the Legacy paddlers have been changed - and find hope. We examine the alternatives to damming rivers, with the hope that the mistakes of Rupert will not be repeated again. Ernest reflects on his voyage: his journey with his fellow Cree, his conversations with environmentalists and his experiences with Hydro-Québec. We end with a new appreciation of the Cree’s relation to the river - and what they will need to do to prepare for the future, while remaining connected to their past.
