Mj H @RT44408916 May 14 Incredibly important movie, especially for those concerned about the environment. The salmon run on the SALMON River is almost gone due to the river water warming from being pooled behind the dams. Salmon need really cold water to thrive and travel from their spawning grounds to the ocean. These women travelled the route taken by spawning salmon. They experienced the complications and difficulties in making the trip that the salmon encounter. At times hilarious and at times sad, the movie is a great reminder of the ways we can correct the damage humans have caused in the past. See more Read all reviews
