Director Sam Bozzo's provocative and troubling documentary reveals how we are polluting, diverting, pumping and wasting our limited supply of fresh water at an expediential level as population and technology grows. The rampant overdevelopment of agriculture, housing and industry are increasing demands for fresh water beyond the world's finite supply and testing our ability to cope. Bozzo filmed in nearly a dozen countries, following numerous examples of people fighting for their basic rights to water, from court cases to violent revolutions, U.N. conventions, revised constitutions and local protests at grade schools. For many, it is a war on corporate efforts to lay claim to the world's dwindling fresh water supply.
