Flooding Job's Garden is a compelling documentary that navigates the complicated aftermath of the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement. It contrasts the initial optimism of the 1975 treaty with the harsh realities faced by Indigenous communities years later. The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to absorb the gravity of the ongoing impact of hydro-electric projects. There's a rawness to the footage and a stark honesty in the interviews that really drives home the struggle for autonomy and environmental stewardship. It’s distinctive in how it captures the clashing interests of government and local voices, making you think critically about progress and its cost. Not your typical documentary—definitely worth the watch.
