Film Segment FLOW - Click Arrow to Start: http://www.flowthefilm.com/trailer
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.
On December 10th, 2008 FLOW was invited to screen at the United Nations as part of the 60th Anniversary of the Declaration of Human Rights. _____________________________________________________________________
