Film charts Great Lakes waters
Cinema Politica UWindsor presents a screening of the film Waterlife, Thursday, March 11, at 7 p.m. in room 3123, Erie Hall.
The film, directed by Kevin McMahon and narrated by The Tragically Hip’s Gord Downie, follows the epic cascade of the Great Lakes to the Atlantic Ocean. From the icy cliffs of Lake Superior to the ornate fountains of Chicago to the sewers of Windsor, this feature-length documentary tells the story of the last huge supply of fresh water on Earth, now under assault by toxins, sewage, invasive species, dropping water levels—and profound apathy.
Thursday's screening is free and open to the public.
