“Join us for a special screening of The River, followed by a community Q&A with the filmmakers, community members, and participants featured in the film. The event will offer an opportunity to explore the urgent issues surrounding the Colorado River and hear directly from those whose lives, communities, and futures are connected to its waters.
After 5 million years of existence, the Colorado River now fights to survive. This once thriving life source to millions of people and wildlife, is now on the brink of collapse, as human consumption, booming industry, and climate change threaten to dry up its already depleted reservoirs forever. In a moment of reckoning, an unlikely ensemble of people dependent on the River must defend their way of life against modern pressures and unjust laws, all while coming to terms with the choices we’ve made that have led to this disaster and the uncertain future ahead. But this ancient river has always had a life of its own, and there are still some who will stand up and give it a voice. For if the river can regenerate, maybe so can we.
Following the screening, filmmakers will be joined by community members and film participants for a conversation about the film, the Colorado River, and the experiences and perspectives that shaped the story. The Q&A will offer an opportunity for audiences to engage directly with the people at the center of this important conversation. (Dir. by Mara Gasbarro Tasker, 2026, USA, 88 mins., Not Rated)
