The Great Lakes formed thousands of years ago when a glacier moved across the region and melted. The film "Project:Ice" depicts the important role ice continues to play in the Great Lakes Basin.
Bill Kleinert, the documentary’s executive producer and director, discusses the importance of ice to the Great Lakes region.
