The Rising Wave
Yask Desai
Shweta Kishore
Australia/India | 2008 | 65 mins
In India water has a deep spiritual
and functional significance. While
worshiped as sacred, it is also essential
for generating livelihood.
Filmed in three different states of India, The Rising Wave eloquently presents a culture built on water being shared, used and managed in ways unchanged for centuries, featuring communities who have been dependent on their local natural water resource for generations as they fish and farm for their livelihood.
In the rapidly transforming economy of India, corporations now lay claim to control and determine access to this natural resource. A contrasting picture emerges: water as a billion dollar industry against water as a sacred natural gift for all humankind. This spells conflict for the future.
Granted access to these tiny communities through a network of field workers, The Rising Wave is a thoughtprovoking documentary that captures the feeling of loss experienced by them, and offers a glimpse into the compelling stories of the individuals themselves.
