Running Dry - The Documentary
with Jim Thebaut

Writer, Producer, and Director

The Running Dry project (www.runningdry.org) has been designed as a massive comprehensive public information/education program on the global humanitarian water crisis. A documentary of the same name has been produced and is the centerpiece of the overall education project.

Presentations of the documentary are currently taking place at international venues in conjunction with in-depth discussions of the crisis for the purpose of educating policy makers, educators, students, and the general public.

Actress Jane Seymour, the documentary narrator, and many other notable and knowledgeable individuals have come together to participate in the public information/education process. In addition, educators are also designing ways for the documentary to be utilized within academic curricula.

UNM is proud to present this groundbreaking documentary, hosted by writer, producer, and director Jim Thebaut. The film (80 minutes) will be followed by a Q & A session with Jim and local water experts.

Woodward Hall is Building 82 on the UNM campus map (www.unm.edu/campusmap05.pdf). Pay parking is available at the Parking Structure (Building 198) near the corner of Redondo and Stanford.
