Irena Salina's award-winning
documentary investigation into what experts label the most
important political and environmental issue of the 21st Century
- The World Water Crisis. Salina builds a case against the
growing privatization of the world's dwindling fresh water
supply with an unflinching focus on politics, pollution, human
rights, and the emergence of a domineering world water cartel.
Interviews with scientists and activists intelligently reveal
the rapidly building crisis, at both the global and human scale,
and the film introduces many of the governmental and corporate
culprits behind the water grab, while begging the question "CAN
ANYONE REALLY OWN WATER?"
Beyond identifying the problem,
FLOW also gives viewers a look at the people and institutions
providing practical solutions to the water crisis and those
developing new technologies, which are fast becoming blueprints
for a successful global and economic turnaround.. |
