environmentalist allies stand up to Hydro-Quebec, one of North
America's largest power companies, the stage is set for an extraordinary
conflict. Unprecedented access to key figures like Cree leader
Matthew Coon Come and environmental activist Robert Kennedy Jr.
makes this a compelling, behind-the-scenes story of the Crees'
epic five-year battle to save the Great Whale River and their
traditional way of life. Best Documentary, Environmental Film
Festival, Paris. Directed by Magnus Isacsson. 1996, 1 hr 16 min.
Cosponsored by the International
Studies in Planning Program and the American Indian Program.
