Irena Salina’s award-winning 2008 documentary “FLOW: For Love Of Water” investigates what experts label the most
important political and environmental issue of the 21st Century: the world water crisis.

In the course of 84 minutes, interviews with scientists and activists intelligently reveal the rapidly building crisis, at both the global and human scale, and the film introduces many of the governmental and corporate culprits behind the water grab, while asking the question: Can anyone really “own” water?

A collaboration of Ascension Outreach and Resistance Cinema, the First Tuesdays Film Series presents “FLOW” this Tuesday, March 7, at 7 p.m. in the Ascension Parish Hall, 12 W. 11th Street. Admission is free; donations to support the series are appreciated.
