Synopsis

​

In Chile, drought and water scarcity have been hitting hard for more than 15 years. While climate change plays a role, the main cause is the privatization of water, inherited from the Pinochet’s Constitution and its neoliberal model. In the midst of political upheavals, sparked by the 2019 social revolt, Alejo and Ivanna fight to secure access to drinking water and to end the takeover of water resources by agribusiness and mining industry.
