Film: A River Below
On Thursday, January 4th, at 7pm at the Emerson Center, The Bozeman Doc Series presents the Montana premiere of the award-winning new documentary, A River Below. One of the most critically acclaimed documentaries of the year, A River Belowexamines the efforts of two conservationists to use the national media to protect the Amazon pink river dolphin, only to discover the consequences of their actions come with a high price. When footage of indigenous villagers illegally killing a dolphin emerges, the tangled story behind the images calls into question the activists’ tactics. As dramatic and multilayered as any fiction film, A River Below captures the Amazon in all its complexity and uncovers a scandal that has no simple solution. “Díaz's sublime cinematography and the way [director] Grieco teases out the knotty narrative make for a haunting exploration of an ethical morass, where vilification is easy, but deconstructing power much more difficult.” Village Voice “Gripping and unforgettable.” The Playlist See the film's trailer here. Get tickets here. Tickets are also available at the door or before the show at Cactus Records and Movie Lovers. Doors open at 6:30pm the night of the show. Starting on January 4th, the series will move to every other Thursday through April. |
