Focus Years: 2010 | Country: Canada
Synopsis:
"Down the Mighty River" is a six-part documentary series about the Rupert River on the last summer before it is diverted for a hydro-electric project. Cree native Ernest Webb takes us on a final journey down the river, exploring the impact of this mega-project on the people and environment of the north. In Episode 3 - "The Power of Resilience": In recent history, the Cree people of James Bay have been displaced by hydro projects, forced into residential schools and hit by rapid change. Through it all, the Cree have maintained their culture by reconnecting with the land. But now, that land is in jeopardy. In Old Nemaska, people are rebuilding a community displaced by a hydro project that never happened, only to discover they’re building on a shifting foundation with the river about to change forever. Cree culture has endured years of colonialism and huge-scale development. Will the river be as resilient? Will it survive this rapid environmental change?
