The Red River Flood (2021)

In 1997, the Red River separating Grand Forks, North Dakota, and East Grand Forks, Minnesota, overflowed its banks to historical proportions, necessitating the largest civilian evacuation since the Civil War. With interviews and never-before-seen archival footage, "The Red River Flood" takes viewers on an extraordinary journey through a community's attempts to come together as the Red River threatened to erase two cities from the map. Most importantly, the film explores not only the destruction wrought-and subsequent rebuilding-but also how this once-in-a-century event changed those who were there.
