Program Description

Event Details

Oil & Water is the true story of two boys coming of age as they each confront one of the world’s worst toxic disasters. Hugo and David were born on opposite ends of the oil pipeline. Hugo comes to America to fight for the survival of his Cofan tribe in the Ecuadorian Amazon, while David goes to Ecuador to launch the world’s first company to certify oil as “fair trade.” Their journeys lead them to explore what could be a more just future, not just for the Cofan, but for all people around the world born with oil beneath their feet.

Watershed Alliance of Southwest Washington's Food & Film Series runs January through June. This popular event features provocative documentaries spotlighting relevant environmental topics facing the planet today.

Sponsored by Clark County Public Health and Vancouver Community Library. Complimentary pizza provided.
