Potomac: The River Runs Through Us
Each of us is connected to rivers in our everyday lives. Most of the six million people living in the Potomac River watershed do not realize that their drinking water comes from the Potomac. Since the Clean Water Act passed in 1972, the health of the river has improved. However, it is still in trouble and faces a number of serious threats: urban development, population growth and runoff from farms, pharmaceuticals and chemicals. The film follows the flow of the Potomac water from its origin, into our homes and businesses and back into the river.

America. Summer. 2016. What is going on? In July and August 2016 I drove across the United States and asked 46 random people "What is going on politically in our country right now?" The interviews were spontaneous, and each person had a ready response. The interviews were recorded on my iPhone.
