Utah’s Great Salt Lake is drying up, foretelling a dire future for residents of Salt Lake City and the surrounding region if something isn’t done soon to reverse the lake’s decline. An unprecedented coalition of state leaders, agencies, conservation organizations, foundations and private philanthropists have assembled to head off what some are warning could be an environmental disaster on a scale America hasn’t seen since the Dust Bowl of the 1930s.
A key part of that effort is to make people across Utah and the globe aware of Great Salt Lake’s importance and the urgent need to save it. After nearly two years in production, Secrets of Great Salt Lake is set for release in giant screen theaters worldwide, including a destination theater and interpretive center currently under construction at Utah’s Antelope Island State Park located near Salt Lake City.
The 3-D film was produced by Denver-based Mission Partners Entertainment Group and is narrated by Mike Rowe with support from the Max McGraw Wildlife Foundation and wetlands conservation leader Ducks Unlimited. Toronto-based SK Films will handle distribution of the film to giant screen theaters worldwide in multiple languages, and Secrets was directed by Tyler Mifflin.
