April 29: Western Water--and Power - Ever since Western settlers dreamed of deserts in bloom, men have chased the mirage of more water than these arid lands can provide. “Whiskey is for drinking and water is for fighting” describes the urgent struggle every generation of Coloradans faces to control this fleeting resource—creating hydrodynamic history through structures that can propel water to run uphill toward money, and power.

A Q&A with Sean Cronin of the St Vrain & Left Hand Water Conservancy District will follow the screening.
