FLOW
Tuesday, November 17
W.H. Over Museum
7:00 p.m.

Water is the new gold of the 21^stcentury, and large corporations are taking it from public use for their own private profits. Come see “FLOW”, an award-winning documentary that focuses on the world water crisis and asks the key question: “Can anyone really own water?”

In South Dakota, we are likely to see refineries, coal companies, nuclear power plants, ethanol plants wanting to convert Missouri River water for their own use, and many out-of-state entities wanting to divert water in Missouri River reservoirs to new uses in their dry states.

Worldwide, the emergence of water cartels threaten to privatize dwindling supplies of fresh 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.
