Niagara Falling - Niagara Falls - A Vision for the Future (Updated)

To stand at the very edge of Niagara Falls is to feel the water's primal pull. There, where the roaring river drops away at your feet, you can partake in an ageless miracle. Yet the nearby city of Niagara Falls has seen one of the most remarkable declines of any urban center. Where some see total collapse in less than a lifetime, others see a hometown with strong roots and culture. Still others see a landscape worshiped for its divinity over several millennia.

We see this short trailer as a beginning for a visioning project and a documentary film about what's possible. Our aim is to build a powerful case for a concerted effort in which local business, regional interests, and national priorities participate in the Niagara Falls of the future.
