WHERE THERE ONCE WAS WATER
We are thrilled to close this year’s Festival with the U.S. Premiere of a new highly-anticipated documentary by Central Coast photographer/filmmaker, Brittany App. Beautifully filmed and articulated, this is a story about water and is focused on solutions. Centered on the American Southwest, Brittany introduces us to revolutionary new practices that are helping to restore and rebuild, confronting future water shortage issues head on. From reintroducing salmon and beavers to streams, to managing cattle holistically and using biodiversity techniques for vineyards, grazing and crops, this inspiring film asks the question: What can you do, in your life, to be a voice for the water?
