According to the World Health Organization, around 3.4 million people die every year from diseases caused by inadequate water or sanitation and 99% of these deaths occur in the developing world. Last night’s Not a Drop to Drink on the BBC followed the attempts of Gerry Mariner, a worker for the charity Water.org in his attempts to deal with this problem. Gerry has been trying to provide clean and safe drinking water to a small community on the edge of the Namibia desert, a region that experiences only about 14 inches (350 mm) of rainfall a year, and one of the driest places on the planet.

Mariner has been living in the small community of Poopoolupu. His role there is to try to provide a solution to the problem of access to drinking water. Most of the country is a desert, and the population of the region relies on groundwater and wells for water. Before the arrival of Water.org, the women of the village were walking seven hours a day to get water for their villages – three hours to the nearest well, and four hours back. The way back usually takes longer because the women are carrying heavy buckets of precious water and must not spill a drop. To make the problem worse, the wells are drying up in that region. Mariner’s job
is to dig new ones.
The documentary was beautifully shot: the surrounding desert of Namibia provides lots of opportunities for spectacular landscape shots. However, this emphasis on the landscape made the viewers feel that the director did not think the problems of the villagers were important. We didn’t actually see the women carrying their heavy buckets of water, we only heard about them, while instead we saw incredible shots of shifting dunes and blue skies. Watching it on a cold dark rainy night in the middle of February, I looked longingly at the shots of dry sandy beaches, blue sky, and hot sun, and the villagers of Poopoolupu and their water problems seemed unimportant. This is surely the wrong message to give the audience.
