Grand Canyon Adventure: River at Risk
More than an exhilarating odyssey through one of our nation's most storied natural treasures, the mighty Colorado River, this large-format film celebrates the power and vitality of Earth's most precious resource — water — and its vulnerability to our growing presence on the planet. Join environmentalist Robert F. Kennedy Jr., anthropologist and author Wade Davis, and their two daughters on a remarkable journey that combines water, family, adventure, and conservation education. Narrated by Robert Redford and featuring songs and music by Dave Matthews Band.
