Audience Reviews for Lost Rivers

Jun 27, 2013

Lost Rivers is a fascinating look at the errors of city building and how some municipalities have sought to rectify the situation resulting in a reconnection between humans and rivers they had forgotten about. The film is that much stronger for showing the human cost of restoration efforts in an honest and straight forward manner.
