Film review by Cate Montana
We fill our coffee mugs and sports bottles, hot tubs and swimming pools with it. We use it in manufacturing, rely on it for hydropower, and for cooling nuclear reactors. We wash the car, the house, the dog, and the dishes with it.
Water is so common it falls from the sky, annoying us when it ruins our vacations. We treat it as an expendable commodity. And yet, go three days without drinking it in some form, and see what happens. Go for a week and you might not live to tell the tale.
Water is the most important, mysterious, and vital substance on Earth. But it's obvious from the way we treat it that human beings don't really understand this. However, that's about to change. The documentary film Water is about to help wake humanity up to the true value of this deeply exploited resource.
