Traveling with Crumbling Land, 6 minutes and 24 seconds, Super 8 to 2K, silent, 2024
This Super 8 documentation was filmed for Noah Gotlib’s Crumbling Land, a research project studying climate migration's impact in North America. On a road trip from Winnipeg to North Dakota in 2024, the destination was Devils Lake, a large closed basin that experiences dramatic fluctuations in volume and size. This ongoing rise of the lake has resulted in severe infrastructure damage, now exceeding $1.5 billion for maintenance and repairs that include the destruction of over 500 miles of accessible road. The communities of Churchs Ferry, Penn, and Minnewaukan, once miles inland, are now submerged and have been abandoned.
