The American Southwest: A River Ran Through It 

WED, Oct 1, 7PM

2025 | Documentary | Directed by Ben Masters, Starring Quannah Chasinghorse | 1h 47m | G

The American Southwest is a family-friendly wildlife movie that takes viewers on an unforgettable journey down the mighty Colorado River.  Narrated by indigenous environmentalist Quannah Chasinghorse, the film beautifully showcases the abundant wildlife of the region, confronts the ecological impacts of dams and water overuse, and boldly advocates for better management of water and wildlife.  Made in association with Natives Outdoors, the movie is told through the perspective of some of the Southwest’s most charming characters…  such as industrious beavers, bugling bull elk, and soaring condors.  Between its legendary landscapes and fascinating wildlife, The American Southwest aims to endear millions of people to better cherish, love, and conserve this unique region.
