About the Film:
The Soul of The Fraser (2022)
In beautiful British Columbia, Canada, follow an ensemble cast ranging from a former government fish habitat biologist turned activist to a boat captain with an Indigenous family history long forgotten, as they search for a way to save what’s left of the Fraser River Estuary. This documentary feature uses the estuary as a case study, proving a lack of environmental stewardship as a result of Indigenous suppression and bureaucratic mis-management.
