The End of Time : Directed by
Carl Jacks
Conceived as the unofficial sequel to 2007's West
Kootenay whitewater paddling film "No Purpose : No Design,"
the artistically inclined End of Time delicately merges
lucid whitewater visuals with ambient, environmental inspirations.
While maintaining a raw sense of action based entertainment,
TEOT also promotes an introduction to the West Kootenay based
Endangered Creeks Expedition - (ECE) - 2008.
This independent, multi-disciplinary team based effort aims to
explore, video and photo document numerous West Kootenay rivers
and creeks that are currently being threatened by an unjustified
influx of "Run-of-the-River" Independent Power Projects
(IPPs). Motivated by a devotional interest in protecting these
dynamic environments for future generations, the ECE team plans
to later present their exploratory adventures in a multi-media
production set for early 2009.

Background:
Currently, the BC Government is poised
to transfer ownership rights to over 600 of its wild and scenic
waterways. This could mean the building of hundreds of independent
power projects in watersheds throughout the province, without
any adequate review of the environmental or community impacts.
This will result in incalculable damage to wild and scenic rivers
through road building, habitat destruction, water-diversion and
a maze of new power transmission lines.
We here at Dainty Deathy Productions stand firmly behind all
of those who are working hard to protect our environment and
we will continue to do our very best to promote the efforts of
these many individuals.
