The San Gabriel Mountains lie Northeast of Los Angeles and create the base of what is known as the Angeles National Forest. An area rich in geological wonder, the mountains contain waterways that flow downwards into the cities below. One of the most influential waterways is the Arroyo Seco, which flows from the foothills of Altadena through Pasadena, Eagle Rock, Highland Park and finally, feeding into the Los Angeles River at a confluence at Avenue 19 and Riverside This film is a landscape meditation on the Arroyo Seco and the water that runs through it. The space where rock meets flow / rigidity and fluidity / rippling past our current era / carrying the shapes of many others / before our own.
