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.
