While various pieces will be available for purchase (through the vendor), the event is free, open to the public, and includes a reception featuring light refreshments.

Water, the quintessence of life, sustains every creature on Earth. The time has come when we can no longer take this precious resource for granted. "Flow: For Love of Water" is an inspired, yet disturbingly provocative, wake-up call. The future of our planet is drying up rapidly. Focusing on pollution, human rights, politics, and corruption, filmmaker Salina constructs an exceptionally articulate profile of the precarious relationship uniting human beings and water. While each community's challenges are unique, the message is universal - the time to turn the tide is now. -- Part of the Politics of Food Film series. (Irena Salina, 2008, 93 min, USA, in English, Color, DVD) Presenedt by Screen Society.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
