In the zone. Locked in. In your element. Flow State is that indescribable moment when everything clicks - when you're so immersed in what you're doing that time dissolves, self-doubt fades, and you're simply present. The activity that inspires flow state looks different to everyone. It might be the feeling of a perfect cast, the rhythm of paddling downstream, or the meditative focus of watching water move over stones. This year's second annual Fish Water People Film Festival explores the Flow State, and the powerful connection between Californians and our waterways. Through a curated collection of short films, we will discover how flowing water draws us in, grounds us, challenges us, and reminds us what we're fighting to protect.
