About Short Film Showcase:
The Short Film Showcase spotlights exceptional short videos created by filmmakers from around the web and selected by National Geographic editors. We look for work that affirms National Geographic’s belief in the power of science, exploration, and storytelling to change the world. The filmmakers created the content presented, and the opinions expressed are their own, not those of National Geographic Partners.
Know of a great short film that should be part of our Showcase? Email sfs@natgeo.com to submit a video for consideration. See more from National Geographic’s Short Film Showcase at http://documentary.com

For the people who work the fields, the Colorado River represents not only the source of their livelihood, but a deep, spiritual connection to the arid landscape. In Leche y Miel (Milk & Honey), filmmaker Justin Clifton profiles one community and their connection to the strained Colorado River.
