Join us for a showing of American River based on the book American River by Mary Bruno and directed by Scott Morris. Scott will join us in person for this screening!
“American River is a thrilling and insightful documentary that follows Ms. Bruno and guide Carl Alderson on a 4-day, 80 mile adventure down the Passaic River, from its pristine source in a wildlife refuge to its toxic mouth in Newark Bay. The river’s amazing history, geology and ecology are revealed as the kayakers navigate challenges, travel through urban landscapes and head towards the industrial disaster that has poisoned the Passaic for the past 60 years. ”
