Sound recordist and Montana local, Mike Kasic, has an obsession for the underwater wilderness of the Yellowstone River. In this 10-minute short, Mike tells the tale of the river with the help of his wetsuit and fins. He swims the Yellowstone like a human-fish through swift river canyons and scenic mountain views, watching trout in fast currents filled with frothing water tornadoes, stopping only to body surf river waves. His message is simple: a river is more than its water; what lies beneath is a wilderness that is often overlooked, but critical for the Yellowstone ecosystem to thrive.
