FLOW: For Love of Water
This documentary is about the industry and consumption of mankind’s most precious resource: water. As African villages survive on potentially toxic water supplies, Salina explores how the corporate structure has come to control humanity’s water supply, and how politics and grassroots humanitarian organizations both fight and support the increasing privatization of water.
Gift, The
The Gift is the retelling of an old urban myth this time set in New York City on Christmas Eve. This silent short is black comedy at its most poignant: about a woman, loss and the intrusion of practical reality.
