Synopsis
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.
“LAST CALL AT THE OASIS represents nonfiction filmmaking at its most urgent, timely and stylistically smooth.”—Ann Hornaday, Washington Post
“Whether the glass is half full or half empty isn't the point of the effervescent LAST CALL AT THE OASIS: It's whether there'll be anything in the glass at all.”—John Anderson, Variety
“Working with top drawer cinematographer Jon Else, Yu has made a film that is as visually arresting as it is smart. A complicated story cogently told, LAST CALL deals with the problem it's investigating by casting as wide a net as possible, intentionally taking the advice offered by TV crime show ‘CSI’ and ‘following the evidence even if you don't like where it's taking you.’”—Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
