(2010, 57 min, directed by Larkin McPhee) This film traces the development of America's bountiful heartland and its effect on the legendary river. It helps viewers grasp what is a profound truth -- that a single drop of water in Minnesota is connected to the "dead zone" in the Gulf of Mexico -- and offers concrete solutions and fresh ideas to the river's troubles. A discussion follows with Linda Maxwell, education specialist at the Anacostia Community Museum.
