There are ghosts in the water and the ground by the river next to the railroad. Filmmaker, Ava Zeichner, spent a lot of time in this wasteland, unremediated brownfield, abandoned steel mill, gas drum city in East Providence, Rhode Island. Made of field recordings, direct observation drawings, and a poetic interpretation of history’'s ghosts, Split River evokes those places that have been sickened and stunted, yet remain.
