Greenstone Rising

Angebote / Angebote:

When the town of Greenstone, Montana is thrown into chaos by a planned dam expansion, people from the United States and Canada form a cross-border alliance to save Sweet Grass Valley from flooding. Conflict erupts as passions collide. As the community blockades the road, the Boggers, a paramilitary group in danger of being flooded, take up arms. Amidst the growing turmoil, love blossoms. In the wake of plans gone awry on every side, difficult soul-searching questions arise. Meet wise woman Stella as she reaches beyond life on the farm. Absorb the dynamism of Elliot, young Canadian activist, and his flamboyant partner Gitta. Explore the mystery of wilderness with Lawrence, wildlife biologist. Share the numbing pain of an unfortunate accident with Aberdeen, Stella's daughter. Witness Harold Clay Harding, paramilitary ex-con, scheme his way to power. The complex relationship between people and nature provides a springboard for this intimate story of power-the power of regular people to act to preserve what is treasured, the power in alliances that surpass nationality, the power of love to heal and redeem, and ultimately, the power of vanishing wilderness to transform heartbreak and reveal the joy that awaits when nature is treated as sacred.
