A watershed can be simply described as a place where liquid flows downhill, but it is more accurately defined as a complex system of soil, rocks, plants, and animals. More than precipitation and gravity, the Rocky Mountain watershed is critical to the survival of all living things dependent on this ecosystem.
As the changing climate poses rapid challenges to the environment's equilibrium, can the sheer aesthetics of this ecosystem aid in drawing attention to the problem?
Through striking cinematography and compelling interviews, "Water: The Sacred Gift" inspires viewers to seek a more positive future.
