Boil Alert is an urgent, hybrid, border-crossing documentary, featuring activist Layla Staats as she uncovers the struggle of Canada’s First Nations reserves to receive a basic human right — drinkable water. Canadians often hear statistics about this: there are currently 32 long-term boil-water advisories in 28 communities throughout the country. But this film puts faces and personal stories to the numbers. Premiered at TIFF, Directed by James Burns.
