THE LAKE
The Lake is a raw, vérité film that follows three individuals fighting to save a dying lake. They see what’s coming—poisoned air, a collapsing ecosystem, a community on the brink—and they throw themselves into the everyday, often mundane work of trying to stop it. As they push against bureaucracy, apathy, and the ticking clock of a crisis decades in the making, something eerie and heartbreaking lingers at the edges: the dust rising in the background, a reminder of what will be lost if they fail.
It’s not just a fight to save a lake—it’s a confrontation with the consequences we’ve set into motion. The film asks: What do you do when catastrophe feels inevitable? Where are the lines drawn—and who is willing to cross them?
This is a reckoning with our choices and our systems, but also a testament to the possibility of redemption. The question hangs: Can we save ourselves from ourselves?PT1H28M2026-04-29Abby Ellis
