Their Journey, Their Stories

Nicaragua has some of the richest hydrological resources in the world. However, two-thirds of its population has no access to clean drinking water and sanitation. This paradox is a story that deserves to be told.

Our Passion and Determination

In Spring of 2012, we came together with the idea of creating a documentary about the water crisis in Nicaragua. Our goal was to film personal stories about those who are affected by both water scarcity and pollution in the summer. Through much grit and determination, we succeeded in accomplishing our goal.

Why We Need Your Help

We spent the summer criss-crossing Nicaragua and simply turned the camera on to let the stories be told. What we found was unsettling; rural Nicaraguans suffering under pollution from a large mining company, urban Nicaraguans forgotten by their government without the most basic water infrastructure, and more!

The production phase of our documentary is finished, and we have footage that will be made into wonderfully compelling stories. However, we need your help so that we can bring this remarkable story over the finish line, to ensure that these remarkable stories are told with the care and dignity that they deserve. Thank you so much. Any amount that you can give will help us accomplish our goals.
