How one man is trying to prevent India’s taps from running dry | Witness Documentary

‘Dead Lakes Alive’ looks at “India’s Silicon Valley”, where the taps are running dry. Bangalore’s once-famous city lakes have become a dumping ground for toxic waste and clean drinking water is growing scarce for many of the city’s 12 million residents.

Anand must convince everyone that he can transform the lakes for a future with clean drinking water.
