Two intrepid scientists and a political insider race the clock to save their home from and unprecedented catastrophe.
About this Event

The Lake is a vérité film that follows three individuals fighting to save a drying lake. They see what's coming-poisioned air, a collapsing ecosystem, a community on the brink-and they throw themselves into the everyday, often mundance work of trying to stop it. As they push against bureaucracy, apathy, and the ticking clock of a crisis decades in the making, somethign eerie and heartbreaking lingers at the edges: the dust rising in the background a reminder of what will be lost if they fail.

An official 2026 selection of the Sundance Film Festival.
