Film "The Water Story" airing NATIONWIDE!!

"The Water Story"is airing nationwide beginning this Saturday, April 28th!!!! The film was selected to be a part of a series: "Badami TV presents African-American Short Films" It originally aired last year in the first quarter but will be repeating again this year due to it's popularity.

The Water Story is an "urban folktale" about that combines spirituality with the gritty reality of the streets. Damu Dawkins is a single parent living on the edge of poverty and struggling to raise his 4-year-old daughter. He is forced to re-examine his "by any means necessary" approach to survival when a strange encounter with a mysterious older woman compels him to make choices that could put his life and his daughter's in jeopardy.

The story was created by Elnathan Starnes and script was co-written by him and director Morenike Efuntade (Evans). It was shot on film in location in Washington DC and described by Tribeca Film All Access panelists as a beautiful story. The Water Story has also been featured on Black Starz! , in Washington DC's film fest--DC DANCE and received write ups in the Washington Times & Washington City Paper.
