Description
It is a water story. A documentary centered on solutions. This is a look at the driest of places - California and the Southwest. We are invited to change our perspective, rewrite our stories, and ultimately, heal our broken relationships with the natural world. Where land is desert, and water is scarce, we find hope and resilience in Navajo Nation. Where statewide infrastructure is failing, we find innovation and conservation. Where salmon and beavers are reintroduced into streams, we find restored ecosystems. With reforestation, we find healthier watersheds. In cities, we find urban farmers, healing soil and building community, in conversation with mother earth. Where cattle are managed holistically on grassland, we find cleaner groundwater and healthier springs. Instead of vineyards depleting aquifers, we find biodiversity, responsibility, and hope. Where traditional agriculture has sucked wells dry, we choose a new way forward. And in our kitchens, we find we have great power, and great choice, to use less, waste less, and ask questions. To choose the water story we tell, one meal at a time.
