DamNation

A powerful documentary that explores a metamorphosis of values in the USA; a shift in national attitude from taking pride in building big dams, seeking to conquest the natural world, to growing awareness that man’s future is bound to nature, to knowing ourselves as part of a huge ecosystem. A long and challenging road from the common belief that dams have always been a power for good to the removal of obsolete dams across the country, restoring the life and health of the rivers after decades.
