Seeking the Current- Documentary
Event on 2012-03-16 19:00:00
Presented by Appalachian Mountain Club Conservation Law Foundation, Conservation New Hampshire, New Hampshire Audubon, Society for the Protection of New Hampshire Forests, and other New Hampshire organizations.
This feature-length documentary provides a serious, unsparing look at Canadian power giant Hydro-Québec and its development of large-scale hydroelectric power facilities.
Nicolas Boisclair and Alexis de Gheldere collaborate with Quebecois film star Roy Dupuis for this documentary of passionate environmental advocacy. The film is a convincing critique of
Hydro Quebec's Romaine River initiative–a plan to construct four dams along the 500-kilometre waterway. It's also a story of devolution from social democratic ideals to greed and environmental destructiveness. Narrated by Dupuis and framed by the filmmakers' 2008 canoe journey down the river, this movie details the history of Quebec's energy industry, the likely environmental costs of the new project and, most constructively, the plethora of alternatives to hydroelectricity. Solar energy, biomass, biogas, energy efficiency, wind and geothermal power–all are thoroughly examined in terms of cost, applicability, and efficiency,and the case for them is overwhelmingly persuasive. Here's a film that goes well beyond critique to a detailed vision of a better future for the land. The evidence is in the scrupulous research, but the power lies in the filmmakers' journey of dedication, and the beautiful images it produces.
There will be a post-film discussion with filmmaker Nicolas Boisclair and Conservation Law Foundation Staff Attorney Christophe Courchesne.

Seeking the Current has special relevance to New Hampshire as the state considers and debates the Northern Pass transmission project, the proposed 180 mile transmission line through New Hampshire that would bring an additional 1,200 megawatts of Hydro-Québec hydropower to the New England electric grid.
