The Great Lakes comprise roughly one-fifth of the world's supply of fresh water. A treasured resource and a source of livelihood for millions, this very fragile ecosystem is under assault from industrial pollutants, sewage, invasive species and public apathy. In his award-winning documentary, filmmaker Kevin McMahon sets forth an inspiring, visually breathtaking cinematic poem to one of the earth's last important supplies of fresh water, which is also an elegiac meditation on the ultimate dangers of taking our natural resources for granted.
