Plagues & pleasures on the Salton Sea

There was a time when the Salton Sea, tucked into the southeast corner of California, was known was the Riviera of the West -- a premier vacation destination for the rich and famous. Today it's considered one of America's worst ecological disasters: a fetid, stagnant, salty lake, coughing up dead fish and birds by the thousands. This is an exuberant, irreverent, and insightful documentary that looks at exactly what went wrong.
