DESCRIPTION:Irena Salina's award-winning documentary (Sundance, Mumbai, UN Association 
 and Vail Festivals), investigates what many experts identify as one of the 
 most important political and environmental issues of the 21st Century: the 
 world water crisis, which is directly related to rapid climate 
 change.\nThis film asks, "Can anyone really own the water on our blue 
 planet?" With an unflinching focus on politics, pollution, human rights, 
 and the emergence of a domineering water cartel, the film builds a powerful 
 case against the growing privatization of the world's dwindling supply of 
 fresh water. It moves far beyond the well known example of Bechtel 
 Corporation's disastrous attempt to privatize rainwater in Peru. 
 \n\nInterviews with scientists and activists intelligently reveal a rapidly 
 building crisis at both global and human scale, and the film points to the 
 governmental and corporate culprits behind the water grab. 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—as if people, not profits, 
 mattered most. \n\nDiscussion led by Elanor Starmer of Food and Water 
 Watch.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2011/06/29/18683319.php
