Video on remunicipalisation: putting water back into public hands
A motion design documentary shows examples of cities reversing water privatization to regain public control. This video explores water 'remunicipalisation' in Buenos Aires and Paris, looking at the challenges and benefits of reclaiming public water. It calls on citizens worldwide to mobilize around this option. Remunicipalisation Works!

Great work, CEO, TNI, and MSP! This is a powerful way to communicate about a complicated subject. I will try to spread it around. We are facing privatisation efforts all over the US. This animation can serve as well to prevent privatisation as to encourage remunicipalisation.
I have actually never been able to understand the corporate side of the world. They have always been in consistent in what they do and also changes their whole structure each times making it really hard to follow.
