Do Rivers Really Ever End? is a poetic essay film, in which the personal, indigenous/local and scientific knowledge are combined. What is the poetic and life giving significance of rivers for individuals, communities and other beings? What happens when a person enters into the flow of the river ecosystem and influences and is influenced by its cycles? What does it mean for a river, and its associated natural elements, to have rights?

Do Rivers Really Ever End? is an attempt to feel empathy toward these inanimate flowing ecosystems, rivers, at the time when life giving river ecosystems are drying, are dammed, polluted and transformed. The work is part of my larger hydrofeminist five part project Hydrologic.
