Down To The Last Drop
Overview
The last wild rivers of the Alps are under threat. In the Tyrolean Alps, a chain of new hydroelectric plants is planned, including the controversial damming of the pristine Platzertal valley. This documentary by filmmaker Harry Putz captures the fragile beauty of these untouched alpine ecosystems and explores what’s at stake — not just for the environment, but for local communities and future generations. Through interviews with residents, scientists, and activists, Down To The Last Drop reveals the high environmental cost of outdated energy policies in the face of the global biodiversity and climate crisis.
