All Too Clear: Beneath the Surface of the Great Lakes - FREE FILM
Advertisement
FREE and open to the public!
Part of the Cinema & Sustainability Series
Directed by the husband-and-wife filmmaking team, Zach Melnick and Yvonne Drebert, the immersive film uses cutting-edge underwater drones to explore how quadrillions of tiny invasive mussels, known as quaggas, are re-engineering the ecosystem of the Great Lakes at a scale not seen since the glaciers. To capture this epic change, the pair spent more than 150 days filming underwater, likely making it the most ambitious underwater film ever made about the Great Lakes. Part scientific exploration, part natural history adventure - the film showcases freshwater wildlife and environments like never before.
The 2025 Cinema & Sustainability series, presented with the City of Ann Arbor’s Office of Sustainability and A2Zero, is free and open to all. Kicking off with The Lorax, the series features inspiring documentaries that spark conversation and action around climate, conservation, and community — uniting Ann Arbor through the power of film.
