Wiki.

Searching for the current is a Quebec documentary film, directed by Nicolas Boisclair and Alexis de Gheldere, released on the screens in 2010.The film depicts the two filmmakers exploring the Romaine, a Quebec river, before hydroelectric dams are built there. This "river movie" questions the relevance of such a project and advocates other energy solutions, a priori less destructive and more cost-effective.
