“Gowanus Current is more than simply an artful account of community and grassroots activism, though it fulfills that promise superbly. The film is also a pure cinematic and sensory immersion in glinting water, straining machines, and passionate, eloquent humans as they struggle to make sense of this poisoned garden we’ve made of the world.”

– Jonathan Lethem

“Superb and extraordinary… a sublime meditation on being human now, or during any age.”

- Maria Giese
