Roll on Columbia Woody Guthrie & the Bonneville Power Administration
In 1941, Woody Guthrie and his family left southern California for a job in Portland, Oregon writing songs for a documentary film about the dams being built on the Columbia River. The story is told through interviews with family and friends, and also through archival footage that includes scenes from both Hydro and The Columbia, documentaries made by the BPA's public information department in the late '30s and '40s.
