EXPEDITION EARTHSCOPE (English)
America's turbulent geologic story and earth scientists' biggest push yet to uncover its deepest secrets. (Earth Images Foundation, 2006)
COWBOYS, INDIANS & LAWYERS (English)
A huge western water project pits a radical Native American activist against his own tribal government and their politically connected lawyer. In an intimate portrait of pork barrel politics, the film explores Anglo-Indian relations and American democracy through a rural community battle over money, power, and water. (Julia Dengel, 2005)
A RIVER REBORN: THE RESTORATION OF FOSSIL CREEK (English)
Takes viewers behind the scenes of a 15-year struggle over the fate of Fossil Creek. Tells the exciting story of the decommissioning of Arizona's oldest hydroelectric facility and shows how conflicts between environmentalists and a utility were resolved in favor of environmental healing. As a case study, Fossil Creek reveals both challenges and opportunities associated with riparian restoration and the critical role of science in environmental restoration projects. (Paul Bockhorst, 2006/2007)
