Valley of the Southern North is a love letter to the people and wildlife of the Peace Valley, and an elegy to the Peace River itself. The Site C dam, now under construction, will destroy ancestral territory of the Dunne-Zaa and Cree, violate treaties and displace residents and farmers living along its banks. The film goes beyond the headlines and sound bites of the media and takes an intimate look at this beautiful landscape and those who stand to lose it.
