Arid Lands is an independent documentary film about the land and people of the Columbia Basin in southeastern Washington state. Sixty years ago, the Hanford nuclear site produced plutonium for the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki, and today the area is the focus of the largest environmental cleanup in history.
Arid Lands takes us into a world of sports fishermen, tattoo artists, housing developers, environmental activists, and radiation scientists living and working in the area. It tells the story of how people changed the landscape over time, and how the landscape affected their lives.

"Greetings from Globians world&culture Documentary Film Festival in Potsdam (Germany). We are very proud to have been able to present the International Premier of "Arid Lands" on August 12th at this year's Globians Film Festival proceedings. The audience was very impressed and was able to connect the film to German Landscapes: The East and the documentary "terry nova". Please keep on and produce more documentaries with this degree of focus and sharpness of details. Joachim Polzer, festival director of Globians Film Festival. www.globians.com"
