MOVIE TALK: LAST CALL AT THE OASIS<BR>WITH JOHN GATES & DANIEL SNOW

MOVIE TALK: LAST CALL AT THE OASIS
WITH JOHN GATES & DANIEL SNOW

Sunday, July 29 - 2:45 p.m.
following the 1:00 p.m. screening of LAST CALL AT THE OASIS

Admission to the Movie Talk is free and open to the public. Admission for LAST CALL AT THE OASIS is at regular Ross prices. The Movie Talk series is sponsored by the Friends of the Ross.

The global water crisis will be the central issue facing our world this century. We can manage this problem, but only if we are willing to act now. LAST CALL AT THE OASIS is a powerful new documentary that shatters myths behind our most precious resource. Developed, financed, and executive produced by Participant Media, the company responsible for An Inconvenient Truth; Food, Inc.; and Waiting for “Superman,” LAST CALL AT THE OASIS presents a powerful argument for why the global water crisis will be the central issue facing our world this century. Illuminating the vital role water plays in our lives, exposing the defects in the current system and depicting communities already struggling with its ill-effects, the film features activist Erin Brockovich and such distinguished experts as Peter Gleick, Alex Prud’homme, Jay Famiglietti and Robert Glennon.
