"Tending Toxicity" is a two-channel film that captures acts of care amid the ecological collapse of the Darling-Baaka river. The film portrays communities responding to the river's toxicity, adapting with tenderness during the severe drought. Otis Filley and Daniel Schulzdocumented this struggle by walking the river daily for three months, observing fish rescue volunteers relocating endangered Murray Cod to safer areas to preserve their lives in toxic refuge pools.
