From Michigan's neighbor to the north comes this exploration of the current state of the Great Lakes -- the last vast fresh water supply on earth. Canadian director Kevin McMahon combines gorgeous cinematography with revelatory computer imaging to present a tour of the beauty and ecological distress of each of the five lakes, from the northern tip of Lake Superior all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. A breathtaking, all-encompassing look at the threatened state of our state's most precious natural resource that will forever change the way you see the waters of Michigan's lakes. In person: Kevin McMahon.
