Five years after releasing the film, the team revisited the Sea, only to discover that the predicted disaster is now happening at a rapid pace, destroying the ecosystem that fish, wildlife, and humans depend on. The follow up short film, Return to the Salton Sea, was released online in March 2019, revealing the stark reality the Salton Sea and the surrounding areas are faced with.
