The film pretty much covers how water being blocked by a dam can create energy, which in return can help coal mineru0026#39;s see. The coal allows people to make steal, which allows…. I think you get the point. Itu0026#39;s doubtful that anyone other than Harrington fans are going to want to check this educational film out and itu0026#39;s even more doubtful that his fans are going to find anything overly special here. He certainly does a good job telling the story thatu0026#39;s needing to be told but at the same time itu0026#39;s pretty straight-forward without any of his signature touches.”
