WHERE: Heathen Feral Public House [Vancouver, WA]

WHAT to EXPECT: "Our Two Hands" takes you on a dynamic visual journey to familiar places that will have you seeing them in an entirely new light. Society has a complex relationship with salmon and steelhead. The current management paradigm has failed, and the status quo solutions for restoring impoverished wild populations have proven ineffective.

"Our Two Hands" is an examination of the underlying cause of this decline, as well as the innovative voices in the angling community and general public fighting for a wild fish future in the Pacific Northwest. <<MORE INFO>>
