In the wake of a hurricane, environmentalist Marjory Stoneman Douglas visits filmmaker Sasha Wortzel in a dream, catalyzing a prismatic journey across the Florida Everglades with Miccosukee educator and activist Betty Osceola. Interweaving Douglas’s writing, personal narration, present-day verité, and archival footage, RIVER OF GRASS reveals how this country’s origin story haunts and inextricably shapes contemporary American life, while asking how we might weather coming storms better together.Confidential Trailer Here”…in Wortzel’s cinematic Everglades, humans are merely one fleeting creature in a far more complex ecosystem, a world where birds, reptiles, plants and water are there to show us the care-taking way.” — Lauren Wissot, Filmmaker Magazine“A mosaic of past and present…capturing [the Everglades] wonder and reassuring the audience that there is still much beauty to save.”
