Brides of the Well by Shekhar Kapur | WaterAid

Shekhar Kapur has collaborated with us to create a short animation, Brides of the Well, adapted from a story he wrote to highlight water scarcity issues and how this impacts women and girls globally. Find out more: https://watera.id/2QDIlNg Narrated by Bend it like Beckham and ER star, Parminder Nagra, the film tells the story of Saraswati and Paras; two teenagers living in Punjab, northern India. Globally, one in nine people lack access to clean water. India has a staggering 163 million people – and roughly 81 million women - living without clean water close to home, making it the country with the highest population without this basic resource. This global crisis affects women and girls disproportionately throughout their lives as they bear the burden of walking long distances to collect water, often forcing them to drop out of school from an early age, missing out on their education and – in some cases – making them vulnerable to child marriage.
