The Fraser River forms the largest estuary along the Pacific Coast of North America, is home to over 400 species of vertebrates, thousands of plants and a myriad of small invertebrates.
In this documentary screening, follow an ensemble cast ranging from a former government fisheries 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 Estuary.
Following the screening, we will have a special Q&A with river restoration expert Professor Ken Ashley, the cast, and the filmmakers. Step out of the bustle of Vancouver and reconnect with what’s left of the mysterious Fraser Estuary!
