Children of the Columbia

Colorado Premiere
The mighty Columbia River flows 480 miles through British Columbia. Whether it’s supporting millions of people with its hydro-power, acting as a transportation system for the timber industry or providing countless outdoor recreation opportunities, the river is the thread that weaves together the cultures of the Pacific Northwest. Using footage from 50 historical films, Children of the Columbia uses the river as a lens through which to explore BC’s other iconic industry: skiing.
