The Water Protectors

Directed by Carhianie J. Vargas Padín

The Water Protectors is a student-made documentary pilot that briefly explores the topics of hyper development, unregulated sewage disposal, contamination, climate change, and community action in the west coast of Puerto Rico through initiatives led by Surfrider Foundation Rincón—an organization that works alongside volunteers to study, preserve, and defend local water sources through education, activism and community partnerships.
