“Best of the Fest” The Memory of Fish, Tuesday at the Grange
Posted February 18, 2018 at 5:35 am by Peggy Sue McRae
Friday Harbor Film Festival will be showing The Memory of Fish at the Grange on Tuesday, February 20.
The Memory of Fish is a documentary portrait of the intertwined lives of Dick Goin and wild fish, and his fight to free a river. Elwha River salmon fed Dick and his family after they migrated to the Olympic Peninsula during the Dust Bowl. He never forgot his debt to the now disappearing fish. We follow Dick—a pulp mill worker and master fisherman—as he uses his memories and persistence to battle for the biggest dam removal project in US history so that the salmon can come home.
“Best of the Fest” film series shows film festival favorites on first and third Tuesdays at the Grange at 7 pm. Admission by donation.
