Fundy Film Society presents Watermark
2013-11-06 19:00 - 21:00 | Acadia Cinema`s Al Whittle Theatre, 450 Main Street, Wolfville, Canada
Fundy Film is delighted to learn that award-winning Canadian filmmaker, Jennifer Baichwal, will be on hand to introduce Watermark and offer a Q & A after, for this her second collaboration with environmental photographer Edward Burtynsky. Fundy Film screened their Manufactured Landscapes in January, 2007.
Following the tremendous success of Manufactured Landscapes, Baichwal (Payback, Act of God) reunited with Burtynsky for this visually arresting and enlightening film documenting our engineered manipulation of water, and the far-reaching repercussions of abusing this valuable resource.
Burtynsky`s breathtaking landscape photography is at the forefront of the film, as Baichwal investigates the role that water plays in cultures and industries in North America, Iceland, Asia and India. From the Ogallala Aquifer`s centre pivot irrigation systems in the US to the chemical water pollution caused by India`s leather-processing industry, Watermark offers a vast exploration of water`s necessity in our global and economic survival while weaving together the various roles it plays in everyday life`”and in environmental art.
