A World without Water This bold and ambitious film explored the international battle for the ownership of water through the compelling and emotional stories of four families in Bolivia, Detroit, Tanzania and India, as they battled both multi-nationals and their own governments to gain access to life’s most precious resource. www.truevisiontv.com/water |

Nuclear Nightmares Few things are scarier than radiation. But are our nuclear nightmares based on reality? This film investigates the science behind the fear, and talks to the UN scientists studying the effects of the Chernobyl disaster on people and wildlife. It uncovers astonishing evidence that contradicts many common assumptions about the risks of radiation exposure. How dangerous is radiation really? Could it even be good for us? http://www.tvdox.com/prog_NN.html |
