"Human Rights Watch International Film Festival"

Deepa Mehta's Oscar Nominated Masterpiece ‘Water’(HRWIFF 2007) Released on DVD


From the courageous and provocative filmmaker Deepa Mehta (‘Fire’, ‘Earth’), comes 'Water' a profoundly moving and beautifully vibrant story of India’s ‘widow houses’, where women of all ages are taken to live (even today), and isolated from society following the deaths of their husbands.

Sprinkled with humour, rife with universal emotions and alive with visual excitement, the story of 'Water' follows three widows who dared to stand up for themselves in the liberating time of Mahatma Gandhi.

'Water' was released on a 2-disc special edition DVD on Monday October 22nd
