“Precious Waters” is a new short film produced by the Friends of the Boundary Waters Wilderness and award-winning Fretless Films. The film takes a hard look at the sulfide mining industry’s history of failed predictions and the threats new mines pose to northeastern Minnesota’s lakes, rivers and streams and sustainable economy, as told through the voices of citizens, scientists and advocates.

We hope you will join us for the premiere and a discussion afterward with the filmmaker and several individuals featured in the film. A reception will follow.
