Walker Ames Saturday Afternoon Session: 9th Annual Hazel Wolf Environmental Film Festival
FILMS: Arid Lands (102 min) & Swim for the River (56 min).
ARID LANDS (English)
Takes us into a world of sports fishermen, tattoo artists, housing developers, environmental activists, and radiation scientists living and working near the Hanford nuclear site in southeast Washington. Sixty years after producing plutonium for the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki, Hanford today is a landscape of incredible contradictions. Coyotes roam among decommissioned nuclear reactors, salmon spawn in the middle of golf courses, wine grapes grow in the sagebrush, and federal cleanup dollars spur rapid urban expansion. Marked by conflicting perceptions of wilderness and nature, Arid Lands is a moving and complex essay on a unique landscape of the American West. (Grant Aaker & Josh Wallaert, 2006)
SWIM FOR THE RIVER (English)
Chris Swain braved whitewater, sewage, snapping turtles, hydroelectric dams, homeland security patrols, factory outfalls, and PCB contamination to become the first person to swim the entire length of the Hudson River from the Adirondack Mountains to New York City. In the film, Swain's experience links together stories of the river, which begins in wilderness and ends in one of the nation's densest population centers. (Tom Weidlinger, 2006)
