The Mokihinui River documentary is part of the
Rivers series that recently screened on PrimeTV. Photographer, and Forest & Bird Executive member Craig Potton explores the untouched wilderness of the West Coast’s Mokihinui River.
The
Tale of Two Rivers looks at the struggle for power on the West Coast. It looks at some of the proposed hydro-electric schemes for the West Coast including the one proposal to dam the Mokihinui and one for using waste water at the Stockton mine.
After the films there will be an opportunity to ask an expert panel about New Zealand Rivers and the Mokihinui. All proceeds from this fundraiser will go towards Forest & Bird’s Wild Rivers Campaign.
