Right now we are in the final stages of production for Troubled Waters. With over two-thirds of production complete, we are trying to raise the money to finish production and pay for post production.

Brief Synopsis:

Jim Hill, a seasoned missionary, stumbles on a small town 12,000 feet above sea level in the Puna region of Argentina. He hears San Antonio de los Cobres is being poisoned by the very thing it needs to survive, water.

After extensive research Jim and the team surrounding him discover alarmingly high levels of Arsenic in the town’s drinking water. He wants to install a filter system for San Antonio de los Cobres but when the reality of raising the money, politics, and power stand in his way he is forced to fight for his vision.

Through a mountainous terrain of inner struggle and setbacks Jim and the devoted team of people around him overcome the obstacles thrown in their way and inspire an entire town to stand up for its well being. A series of extraordinary events allow them to install a brand new filtration system; providing clean drinking water for the entire town of San Antonio de Los Cobres.

Scope of Documentary:

1. Reveal one of the worst cases of mass poisoning in history in order to bring awareness to the audience about Arsenic contamination and the need for clean drinking water.

2. Explore the inner journey of Jim Hill and his desire to see the town of San Antonio de Los Cobres have clean drinking water.

3. Discover the exotic location and beautiful people of this region in Argentina.

4. Show what one small group of people can accomplish if they step out to help people in need, reveal the effect this project has had on the entire town, and inspire people to step out and help others.
