A new documentary film that tells the underwater impact of the quagga mussels in the Great Lakes will be featured on Thursday, January 30, at Crossroads at Big Creek.  “All Too Clear” is a 90-minute production that uses underwater drones to explore the re-engineering of the ecosystem in the Great Lakes by the tiny invasive mussels.  Filmmaker Yvonne Drebert, who will be at the showing at Crossroads, along with her husband Zach Melnick, spent 150 days filming underwater, including in Door County last year.  Retired DNR Fisheries Biologist Mark Holey says the quagga and zebra mussels rank one and two of the ten most nastiest invasive species in the Great Lakes.   

The “All Too Clear” documentary at Crossroads is sold out for in-person attendance but can be watched via Zoom or Facebook Live on the Door County Library website.  A question and answer period with Drebert will follow the film, which starts at 6:30 p.m.   The presentation is part of the Fish Tales Lecture Series and is sponsored by Healthy Water Door County to Honor the memory of Dick Egan with support from the Women’s Fund of Door County.
