Celebrate Earth Day with Montclair Film and The Nature Conservancy!
Throughout history, rivers have shaped our landscapes and our journeys; flowed through our cultures and dreams. RIVER takes its audience on a journey through space and time; spanning six continents, and drawing on extraordinary contemporary cinematography, including satellite filming, the film shows rivers on scales and from perspectives never seen before. Its union of image, music and sparse, poetic script create a film that is both dream-like and powerful, honoring the wildness of rivers but also recognizing their vulnerability.
“New Jersey’s Rivers” panel discussion with The Nature Conservancy’s Beth Styler Barry, New Jersey Director of Freshwater Programs and Michelle DiBlasio, New Jersey Freshwater Restoration Manager, immediately follows the film.
All guests in attendance will receive a reusable tote courtesy of The Nature Conservancy.
