This film illustrates the history of the St. Lawrence river. From prehistoric times on, it has been a magnificent source of life. The film covers the impact of humanity beginning with the careful relationship with the Native Americans. This soon changes with the arrival of Europeans who begin the insatiable exploitation that would led to the river's damage, creating a situation that we must resolve for all our sakes.

Available on the DVD "The Man Who Planted Trees", Disc 2.

Beautiful animation and an equally effective narration by Donald Sutherland.

After watching this I feel guilty just for being a part of humanity.
