Event Details

The feature film in January is Deep Rising.

This up-to-the-minute tale of geopolitical, scientific, and corporate intrigue that exposes the machinations of a secretive organization empowered to green light massive extraction of metals from the deep seafloor that are deemed essential to the electric battery revolution.

Deep Rising illuminates the vital relationship between the deep ocean and sustaining life on Earth. The documentary also follows mining startup The Metals Company, as it pursues funding, public favor, and permission from the International Seabed Authority to mine wide swathes of the Pacific Ocean floor.

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.
