Watermark [videorecording] / by Baichwal, Jennifer.; Burtynsky, Edward,1955-; Mongrel Media.; Métropole Films Distribution.;
Watermark is a feature documentary from multiple-award winning filmmakers Jennifer Baichwal and Nick de Pencier, and renowned photographer Edward Burtynsky, marking their second collaboration after Manufactured Landscapes in 2006.

Shot in stunning 5K ultra high-definition video and full of soaring aerial perspectives, this film shows water as a terraforming element, as well as the magnitude of our need and use. In Watermark, the viewer is immersed in a magnificent force of nature that we all too often take for granted-until it's gone.Canadian Home Video Rating: G.DVD.
