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.

The emergence of a domineering world water cartel. When it comes to the ways we love our neighbors, seeing that North Americans spend 45$ billion annually on bottled water while 1.1 Billion people globally don’t have access to clean drinking water...And many times, we pollute the water supplies of others without thinking a second thought.

I say that in light of some documentaries I was blessed to see on how much our water supply has been something that has been destroyed at a rapid rate with many saying that the way mankind handles it will determine whether we continue living well or have to live at sub-human/abnormal levels....And at the worst, end up causing our own extinction and fading away just as the dinosaurs did. People can no longer afford to sit on the sidelines. For Millions die annually from preventable, water-related diseases. Most are children...
