Groundswell DVD

Groundswell: A Small Film About Making a Big Stand is Chris Malloy's follow up to his film 180º South (also on DVD). Surfers Dan Malloy, Trevor Gordon and Pete Devries set sail on a 68-foot sailboat guided by the Raincoast Conservation Foundation into British Columbia's Great Bear Rainforest where a pipeline and oil tanker proposal looms. The team explores waves and a rainforest full of life while learning of the potential irreversible consequences of this project from local First Nations leaders. This DVD of Groundswell beautifully and profoundly captures the spirit of a wild place, and the passion of the Heiltsuk people who are committed to protecting it.
