水与电:一次加州大劫案的剧情介绍,《水与电:一次加州大劫案》(Water & Power: A California Heist) 导演:玛琳娜·泽诺维奇(Marina Zenovich) 入围2017年圣丹斯电影节纪录片单元
Water & Power: A California Heist uncovers the alarming exploits of California's most notorious water barons, who profit off of the state's resource while everyday citizens, unincorporated towns, and small farmers endure debilitating water crises. The film peels back the layers of a manipulative, backroom rewrite of California's water contracts in the 1990s, and investigates today's rise of luxury crops and illicit water transfers, all in the face of record drought. As the divide between water haves and have-nots grows, we face a humbling reality: water is the new oil, and as it becomes less accessible, it is rapidly growing more valuable.
