Gowanus Current Free Community Screening
June 03, 2025
7:00pm – 9:00pm
Cobble Hill Cinema
Come to a free screening of the documentary film Gowanus Current, followed by a discussion with the filmmakers Jamie Courville & Chris Reynolds. Decades of industrial waste and raw sewage have turned Brooklyn’s Gowanus Canal into one of the nation’s most toxic bodies of water. The arrival of a billion dollar EPA cleanup and a massive city-led rezoning herald a new era, but what's of value in a neighborhood, and who gets to decide? Made over the course of ten years, Gowanus Current employs a strictly observational approach to examine the convictions of this diverse community and the textures of its landscape.
