Event Description : DOC FILM : CMS India presents 'Holy (un)Holy River'

Although once celebrated for its purity, The Ganges now carries contaminates from its glacial headwaters, where freshly fallen snow contains zinc from industrial emissions. Downriver, the river is dammed 16 times (with another 14 dams under construction) to provide hydroelectric power. Holy (un)Holy River examines the paradox of a sacred river treated so profanely that its existence as a river, as opposed to an open sewer, is in question.
