Lost Rivers

Cities once came into being along rivers, but this Canada-made documentary shows how these rivers are greatly ignored today, hidden below ground or deployed as waste pipes for every conceivable form of urban rubbish, literally left to rot.

From Seoul via Brescia to Toronto, the film examines why rivers have disappeared and the possibility of bringing them back. Visionary urban thinkers, activists and artists from around the world provide their insight to a possible solution.
