Synopsis

Last Call at the Oasis examines America’s looming water crisis through the stories of scientists, activists, and communities confronting chronic drought, contamination, and collapsing infrastructure. The film traces the systemic failures and political resistance that have brought the country to a tipping point, and profiles the individuals fighting to change course before it is too late.
