- Summary:
- Between Two Rivers shines a spotlight on Cairo, Illinois, a historic town with a dark and troubled past, located between the Ohio and Mississippi rivers, where North meets South in America's heartland. The film offers a remarkable insight into a community struggling with severe economic, social, and environmental pressures. The city's tumultuous past serves as an undercurrent to the latest community crisis: the record-breaking floods of spring 2011, when the rising rivers threatened to destroy the town.
