Lost Rivers
2012 | 72 mins. | English, Italian with English subtitles | Directed by Caroline Bâcle
Recounts a time where in almost every city rivers flowed freely. In meeting with visionary urban thinkers, activists, and artists from around the world, this documentary explores why and how they disappeared, and if we could and will ever see them again.
