Get excited: someone is making a documentary about the Gowanus Canal. Gowanus Your Face Off has a trailer from Jessica Philipps, who interviews historians and environmental experts in order to trace the evolution of everyone's favorite, sewage-filled Superfun(d) site. Great line: If you fall in, "without a life jacket, your chances of survival go down dramatically." But the film also aims to challenge the canal's universally negative portrayal. Have a watch.
