This is not a story of one, but of many. From expansive lakes to hidden springs, we see how water is not just a resource, but a lifeline. In the North Island of New Zealand, the Māori community of Tautoro are drawn to the springs for healing and respite. As we follow the water, we see how it also nourishes the gardens which feed the people. We witness the journey of the characters in this film as the very water they love and rely on is threatened by climate change. Confronted with the stark reality of the future that lies ahead, we are called not just to watch, but to act. Together, let us reclaim the waters that sustain us and forge a future where every drop is cherished and every community thrives.
