Source to Sea: Website Development

We are pleased to announce that we have teamed up with Writer/Filmmaker Andy Norris to help support his film "Source to Sea: The Columbia River Swim".

A group of thirty–plus Northwest filmmakers, led by Andy Norris, followed Swain’s swim, and created a modern history of the Great River of the West. The result was a ninety minute film that one viewer called, “a heart–wrenching tale of a man and a river.”

The film includes stunning pre–inundation footage of Celilo and Kettle Falls, as well as a broad spectrum of interviews with tribal members, agency representatives, fishers, authors, nonprofit leaders, and citizens who trace the natural history and present–day challenges of the Columbia River in their own words. One educator described it this way, “The interviews weren’t just riveting, they made this grown man cry.”

C.H.A. Productions issued an offer to filmmakers of Oregon to help promote a film project that brought value and thought provoking concepts with it. Our goals of becoming integrated with the film communities of Oregon begins with this wonderful project.

We are finishing up some final touches on the site and plan to launch it by August 10th! We'll keep you posted.
