Murrumbidgee: Big Water is an upcoming documentary produced by Wedge-Tail Pictures on a River system that sustains ecosystems, towns, and a multibillion-dollar agricultural industry as it flows from its birthplace in the Snowy Mountains, a thousand kilometres through farmland, wetlands, and the red-dirt interior of New South Wales towards the ocean.

Hosted by science communicator and the daughter of NSW sheep farmers Lee Constable, Murrumbidgee is a global-facing impact film on water that charts a path through Australia’s stunning landscapes to ask how we might better balance the competing demands on our water supplies across the world. It is a series that offers competing alternatives: ecosystem collapse or change, assisted by new technologies and ways of thinking.

This film and its associated impact campaign will highlight the need for a greater understanding of water use, the value of freshwater ecologies, and the need for efficient and sustainable agricultural practices in the decades to come, in Australia and overseas.
