Description

"Water Everlasting?" looks at the management of Haiti's most essential resource in the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake. That topic opens a broader dialogue about development in the Western Hemisphere's poorest country. Can Haiti ever recover? Where do those billions of dollars in international aid money go? What will it take to get Haiti moving toward a more sustainable future? Rather than make a typical PR video highlighting just the successful parts of a project, Julienne and her crew opted to explore the complexities of a work in progress.
