L'eau est La Vie (Water is Life):  From Standing Rock to the Swamp.is our film for February.  This is a special screening arranged through the producer, and the film is not available elsewhere. 

 L'eau est La Vie tells the story of the water protectors in Louisiana, as they fight construction of the Bayou Bridge Pipeline, the tail end of the Dakota Access Pipeline, the Black Snake.  This short documentary, approximately 25 minutes long, has a great intensity and sense of reality.  The scenes of conflict with police and contractors are disturbing, and viewers will be inspired.  This selection will allow plenty of time for discussion.
