Every four days a farmer in Australia commits suicide. Las Vegas is fifty feet of water away from ceasing to function. Fetuses are being exposed to birth control pills. All of this is happening due to the scarcity and contamination of the world’s water supply. Jessica Yu’s arresting documentary highlights the fact that even though water is a renewable source, humans are quickly emptying aquifers that took thousands of years to fill. What water we do have is being polluted. We experience déjà vu with Erin Brockovich, who visits Hinkley, California, and discovers that its inhabitants are being exposed to the same chemical from the same company as featured in the Oscar®-nominated film that bears her name. Yu presents the information as beautiful aerial shots remind us of the majesty of our environment. Through interviews with scientists, farmers, water authority officials, and everyday citizens turned activists, Last Call at the Oasis alerts viewers to the possibility of change: The global water crisis is no longer solvable but it is manageable.  JM
