Unless Something Goes Terribly Wrong
Wednesday, 4 February, 2026
Host Tom Bell talks with Portland Water District General Manager Scott Firmin and filmmakers Alexander Wolf Lewis and Kaitlyn Schwalje. Alex and Kaitlyn are the creators of the feature-length documentary Unless Something Goes Terribly Wrong—an informative, funny, and surprisingly heart-warming look inside Portland’s wastewater treatment plant.The film follows a ragtag crew of engineers, mechanics, and scientists as they navigate the often-invisible work of keeping our water clean, while grappling with the gap between the pristine world we expect and the messy, complicated and nose -wrinkling reality required to make it happen. It’s a conversation about infrastructure, teamwork, and the people behind the systems we rarely think about—until something goes terribly wrong!
