About Water (Uber Wasser) Trailers

'He who wants water must be prepared to kill for it' an old Arab saying goes. At the beginning of the 21st century water, the ancient source of life, already is in short supply all over the world. From the heart of Africa to the Aral Sea in the Kazakh steppe the film portrays different people's lives and their struggle for water and survival.

Reviews
BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
Mozjoukine This protracted documentary has theatrical standard filming and a significant subject going for it, battling a reluctance to trim it's material to a length any but the most determined film festival subscriber will support.In three Third World locations, too much or too little water creates misery. Bangladeshishis move their corrugated iron homes out of the path of land-eroding floods. Kazahks live on a dried up sea bed and, in Nairobi,getting drums of water from unreliable tap proprietors bears down on the slum people.Good colour and a nice score. Captions in place of commentary.
