Reflection: A Walk with Water

2021 NR 1h 20m 8.6

Reckoning with the reality of a changing climate, filmmaker Emmett Brennan walks 200 miles next to the Los Angeles aqueduct in search of a vision for humanity worth living for - what he discovers has everything to do with water.

The conditions that make life possible are rapidly changing. Reckoning with this reality on the cusp of a record-setting dry season, filmmaker Emmett Brennan embarks on a powerful journey to find stories of hope and healing. Brennan sets out to walk 200 miles next to the iconic Los Angeles aqueduct. Along the way he encounters cultural leaders, ecological iconoclasts, and indigenous wisdom keepers who are re-envisioning our relationship to water. The water cycle is being broken, they say, and the consequence is an increasingly erratic and uninhabitable planet. -- Through a series of intimate vignettes, Reflection: a walk with water offers essential guidance for reviving this cycle. The award-winning film highlights transformational stories from LA and other parts of California and makes widespread ecological healing seem well within reach. Providing deep insight into the inseparability of water and life, Reflection helps equip our minds and hearts for the important work ahead. -- Featuring original music by Grammy-winning artist, Jacob Collier.
