ABOUT THE EVENT
Phoenixville Public Library will host an online screening of the award-winning documentary, Guardian, by independent filmmaker Courtney Quirin on Monday, August 24 at 7:00 PM. The film follows stewards of British Columbia’s Great Bear Rainforest, who live full-time on boats in the depths of the wilderness to monitor salmon, the backbone of the ecosystem, economy and culture along the BC coast. But, in an age of science censorship and soaring natural resource development, Guardians—and the wildlife they have dedicated their lives to protect—are now disappearing. The film tackles the consequences of the erosion of science and environmental management. Courtney will be on hand to introduce her film and take questions afterwards. The 2018 documentary is 76 minutes and is not rated.
This event is free and open to the public and will take place online via Zoom. A PC with a wired connection to the Internet is recommended for viewing the film. Registration is required on the Adult Events Calendar at www.phoenixvillelibrary.org or by calling 610-933-3013 x132.
