Troubled Water chronicles Wright and Yahanda, two Michiganders and life-long best friends, embarking on an epic 36-day, 425-mile journey on standup paddleboards to shed light on man-made threats to Michigan's fresh water, including the decaying Enbridge Line 5 oil pipeline in the Straits of Mackinac. Watch the inspiring preview here:

Launching from Mackinac Island, the intrepid paddlers aim to propel themselves down the Lake Michigan coast and upstream through inland waters to the state capital to voice their concerns. Can they overcome the mounting fatigue from the wind, waves, and ever-changing weather to complete their quest? What ecological and life lessons will they learn along the way?
