Synopsis: THE RIVER RUNS ON follows conservationists as they struggle to manage two of the most important national forests in America – the Pisgah and Nantahala. The film revolves around the release of the Pisgah-Nantahala Forest Plan as the US Forest Service decides how these two national forests are managed for the next twenty years. The result is a meditation on our relationship to nature, our role in managing lands and what it may mean for the future.
