‘THIRST’ tells the stories of communities in Bolivia, India, and the United States that are asking these fundamental questions, as water becomes the most valuable global resource of the 21st Century.

Global corporations are rapidly buying up local water supplies and are privatizing utilities in places like Stockton, CA. As communities suddenly lose control of their most precious resource, citizens and governments battle to reaffirm public stewardship and basic water rights.

This ground-breaking film reveals how efforts by powerful corporations to commodify the world’ s water supplies have become a strong catalyst for community resistance to globalization.
