Sustainability Series: There’s Something in the Water

February 22, 2021 @ 9:00 am - February 24, 2021 @ 7:00 pm

Free

About the film  

Born and raised in Nova Scotia, Oscar and Emmy award-nominated actor-director Elliot Page and co-director Ian Daniel engage in deeply personal and political dialogue with women at the forefront of some of Nova Scotia’s most urgent environmental crises. Based on the book of the same name by Ingrid Waldron, There’s Something in the Water explores the topic of environmental racism, poignantly shining a light on the Canadian government’s current and historical decisions to prioritize the profits of large corporations over the health of indigenous and black communities. 

About the series 

Athena Cinema, University Libraries, and Environmental Studies Program present the 8th annual Sustainability Film Series. In keeping with all previous series, each film will be followed by a panel discussion featuring faculty members, students, and community members. The events will be virtual. Following each film, we invite audience members to join us for a virtual panel discussion hosted by faculty members, students, and community members. Please join us for a conversation following these beautiful, thought-provoking, and timely films. 

The series is possible thanks to the support of: Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Affairs, OHIO Honors Program, Honors Tutorial College, Cutler Scholars, Office of Sustainability, Center for Campus & Community Engagement, and others.
