Event Description

Set against the immense backdrop of the majestic Grand Canyon, this film combines exhilarating river-rafting action, family fun and one of the most exhilarating landscapes in the world to tell an engaging story of how ordinary people can make a difference for our parched planet – one that is running out of clean, fresh water so fast that the U.N. estimates that 40% of the world could face life-threatening shortages by the year 2050. Grand Canyon Adventure: River at Risk premieres on March 21, 2008 in anticipation of World Water Day (March 22, 2008).

Taking audiences on this illuminating rafting trip are two environmental heroes: world-renowned river advocate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and celebrated author/anthropologist/explorer Wade Davis, accompanied by their daughters—Kick Kennedy and Tara Davis—for whom this journey will become a moving rite of passage. A stirring score featuring songs and music from the Grammy Award-winning Dave Matthews Band sets the mood for this adventure that explores the spiritual, artistic and life-sustaining powers of water—and makes crystal clear that each of us must do our part to better manage this crucial resource for the future. 45 minutes.
