The nation of Bangladesh is prey to every threat from water known to man. Water wars: When drought, flood and greed collide tells the story of this land at war with not only rising seas, but devastating floods and droughts -- from India's dams dumping their excess in the wet season and siphoning off river water in the dry season. And as Bangladesh sees less and less river water during the dry season, it is forced to dig deeper for more wells, encountering arsenic poisoning that is filling hospitals and graveyards. Director: Jim Burroughs.
