"...And Water for All" is my first feature-length film, which I wrote, produced, and directed. It was released on March 22nd, 2022 (World Water Day) and it's available for free in YouTube (see link below).
The documentary deals with the topic of water affordability in Ohio. Building and maintaining the physical infrastructure to deliver high-quality, affordable water to Ohio’s citizens is a costly endeavor, and how to pay for these important investments can lead to heightened levels of social and political conflict. The documentary examines the challenges that governmental and nongovernmental actors will face to secure access to clean, affordable water in the coming decades.
