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.

  • And this is exactly why I pee in the swimming pool.

  • We must stop thinking that there is a difference between people living in one part of the world and another part.

    There is no difference, we are all human beings.

    The thought that people living in the US are more worthy of the basic essentials of life, the most basic being clean water, than people living on another continent, like Africa, Asia, or South America, is offensive, ignorant, and very Un-Christian.

  • Corporate "think tanks" are pushing what they call "free market environmentalism". They claim that we should sell all the water, and everything else for that matter, to corporations and they will protect it. These "think tanks" are funded by the World bank and so on... Plz don't let corporatist's flawed logic convince you all to give these psychopaths stewardship and ownership of the worlds water.

  • The world is running out of water, oil, fishes in the see, wood and many other things!

    Whoever thinks the environmental problem does not exist needs to wake up.

  • @XtremePacifist well said my friend.. GOD bless

  • ... and politicians too cowardly to take on the very sensitive political issue of water system reform for their people.

  • ... furthermore, I have witnessed first -hand Privatization efforts that would have helped provide millions of the world's poorest with basic clean water (not to mention tackle huge pollution problems) , yet which have been sabotaged - from India to Nigeria to Bolivia - by bureaucratic infrastructure engineers and too entrenched in their own failed structures to relinquish their poor stewardship over water and sewerage systems,

  • I am so tired of ignorant people bashing water privatization and making a quick buck off the emotions around water rights ... The private sector - and water privatization - is an easy target to blame for the worlds fresh water problems, but the real culprits, IMHO, are the inept and corrupt governments who control bulk and clean water systems, who do not assume the public-sector's share of the burden for providing clean water ..

  • The 9 dislikes must have come from people in the bottled water industry.

  • dont the major companies realize that they die too?

  • 1:17 "there is less than one person regulating the entire bottled water industry"

  • you can make your own water from air! Never buy water again, never let anyone control your right to water. Its green , its clean , its sustainable.. you can make it in your own home an office...99.99% pure no chemicals..nothing..just water what a concept!  waterpureinternationaldotcom MADE IN THE USA!! GOOD FOR YOU AND GOOD FOR OUR PLANET!
