Private Project

The Sound of Water

Water is perceived differently according to local culture, history, beliefs, issues and priorities. Guillaume & Perrine have travelled all over the world for 10 months, to meet people from countries with very different water-related situations, to reach a better understanding of water use and their perceptions of it. This 55-minute movie will stimulate reflection on the way we consider water. The documentary aims at raising awareness about its rarity, and making people more conscious of the need to protect, preserve and save it.

Note - the movie is also available with spanish and french captions
