Join CO SCOPE for a movie!
Dark Waters tells the story of how these chemicals became known contaminants. Rated PG-13.
People living in the Fountain Valley communities between 2006 and 2015 were exposed to PFAS in drinking water. We think these movies are a great way to educate people about PFAS and connect people to our study.
The Devil We Know explores the dangerous effects of PFAS by focusing on ordinary people who were impacted in 2005. Recommended for older audiences.
Upcoming Event Dates and Locations:
Special showing of "The Devil We Know" coming up on August 5, 2023!
In partnership with the Rocky Mountain Women's Film-in-the-Community series
https://rmwfilm.org/film-in-the-community/
Fountain Branch Library, 1:30pm-4:00pm.
230 S. Main St, Fountain, CO 80817
A RSVP is requested but not required so that we will know who to expect.
We will also host a short panel discussion and Q&A session about PFAS and the study after the movie, between 3-4pm.
Please indicate that you are planning to attend.
