What can the state of Iowa (USA) reveal about how we choose to interact with the land…and how has it led to the nation’s 2nd highest cancer rates and water we cannot swim in safely?

Iowa City based filmmaker and podcaster Charlie Morris explores these themes through interviews with folks from across the state of Iowa. The Iowa Prairie Documentary Project is an all volunteer, micro budget project being released through various multimedia formats:

1. Podcast


2. Videos


3. Feature length documentary film (coming in Fall 2026)
