Dubbed "blue gold," water is becoming a precious commodity as global demand surges. Projections indicate that by 2050, one in four people will face water scarcity, prompting massive investments from major financial institutions like Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank. This shift is creating a water monopoly, with financialization impacting access to this vital resource. Spanning locations from California to Australia and New York to Marseille, the documentary explores the complex interplay of ideology, politics, environment, and economics. The stakes are high, as nearly 10 billion lives hinge on the outcome of this critical battle for water resources.
