The Water Dancers’ Cape Town premiere is particularly timeous, as the city edges its way out of a significant drought. While we were in production last year, Cape Town’s reservoir levels were dwindling below 30%, strict water regulations were imposed on the city’s residents, limiting them to 87 litres per person, per day. These targets were struggling to be met. One year later – and although the region has received considerable rainfall, resulting in levels rising above 60% – strict water regulations remain intact and many are concerned that the rainfall has given way to renewed complacency. This is a climate that can heavily benefit from the message of our documentary, with its focus on optimizing industrial processes whilst protecting natural resources.

We are very happy to have our documentary continue to reach a wider audience across South Africa, and to have the privilege of showcasing the extensive beauty of our country to our fellow citizens. We are also proud to spread a positive message about innovative and successful approaches to conservation. With every new audience, we broaden our scope of influence, and the closer we come to a culture that is more appreciative of – and more accountable for – our natural world.

Happy spring, with love
