Forsberg\ , a conservation photographer and an associate professor of practice at th e University of Nebraska-Lincoln\, and Pete Stegen\, a filmmaker\, journey ed for 55 days through the watershed by bike\, backpack and canoe gatherin g footage with their iPhones. \n\n“When I heard that Mike Forsberg and Pet er Stegen were following a mythical drop of water 1\,300 miles through the Platte Basin Watershed\, I knew it would make a great television story\,” said Christine Lesiak\, producer of the film. “Water is a complicated sub ject that doesn’t always translate to the screen. As Pete says in (the fil m): ‘You can chop this river up a million times and give us so many facts and figures. But to really set the hook\, you've got to make it personal a nd you've got to make people care.’”\n\nSo the duo made it personal. Forsb erg and Stegen immersed themselves in the Platte Basin Watershed — hiking\ , biking and canoeing from the Wind River Range in Wyoming to the place wh ere the Platte flows into the Missouri\, and along the way\, they met with dedicated conservationists and filmed their stories\, while exploring the watershed and building connections between people\, the environment and t he land itself.\n\n“We were surprised how so many people we met along the way had their own personal story about water\, or this river\, and how it connected with their lives in intimate ways\,” Forsberg said. “Also\, how diverse and beautiful and complex our watershed is in what most people con sider flyover country.”\n\nA panel discussion will follow the viewing so t he audience can explore the themes of the film with Forsberg and Stegen.\n \nnWe hope this film makes people think about how precious water is and wh ere your water comes from\, know that rivers are our lifelines\, and reali ze watersheds are communities to which we all belong. With that comes a lo t of responsibility\,” Forsberg said. \n\nLesiak hopes people will get cau ght up in the story\, appreciating one of Nebraska’s great natural resourc es as seen through the eyes of two conservationists\, passionate about nev er taking the water for granted.\n\nAbout the event\nThe documentary movie night is sponsored by the SNR Community Engagement Committee\, with assis tance from NET\, who provided access to the film for a public showing. \n \nNatural Resources\, with content courtesy NET and Nebraska Today\n X-WR-RELCALID:d7ef0d90fcd4544c90ef2184dda21b9b X-WR-TIMEZONE:America/Chicago BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Chicago BEGIN:STANDARD TZNAME:CST DTSTART:20181104T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0500 TZOFFSETTO:-0600 RDATE:20191103T020000 END:STANDARD BEGIN:DAYLIGHT TZNAME:CDT DTSTART:20180311T020000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0600 TZOFFSETTO:-0500 RDATE:20190310T020000 RDATE:20200308T020000 END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE BEGIN:VEVENT UID:8626d823-d8c6-45f3-9720-e523ed5a399f DTSTAMP:20260531T184725Z DESCRIPTION:The School of Natural Resources is hosting Mike Forsberg and Pe te Stegen for a documentary night featuring “Follow the Water” from 7 to 9 p.m. Jan. 31 at Hardin Hall Auditorium\, 3310 Holdrege St. The event is f ree and open to the public\, and parking will be provided in Hardin Hall p arking lot.\n\nThe documentary film\, based partially on the Platte River Timelapse Project and produced by NET Television\, tells the story of the journey of one droplet of water through the Platte River Basin.
