Description
Oil & Water is the true story of two boys coming of age as they each confront one of the world's worst toxic disasters. Hugo and David were born on opposite ends of the oil pipeline. Hugo comes to America to fight for the survival of his tribe in the Ecuadorian Amazon, while David goes to Ecuador to launch the world's first company to certify oil as fair trade. Can Hugo become the leader his Cofán tribe so desperately wants him to be? Will David clean up one of the world's dirtiest industries? Their journeys lead them to explore what could be a more just future, not just for the people of the Amazon, but for all people around the world born with oil beneath their feet.
