Film Director Sanjeev Chatterjee, associate professor and executive director of U. Miami's Knight Center for International Media, will screen his documentary "One Water" at the College of William and Mary's Sadler Center Commonwealth Auditorium on Thursday, Nov. 13 at 7 p.m.

Following the screening, Sanjeev will discuss the making of the film with the audience, followed by a Q & A.

The discussion will then open up to four other panelists: Dr. Camilla Buchannan, MD of the Maasai American Organization, Dr. Jim Perry of the College's Marine Science Dept, Dr. Andrew Fisher of the College's history dept., and Dr. Dennis Taylor of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science. All will discuss and answer questions on their own experiences with the resource of water.

The event will then turn into an informal reception, with presentations by both the Maasai American Student Association and the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting. The Pulitzer Center presentation will consist of a monitor that displays the center's Water Portal, as well as a video camera that will allow students to provide input on their own experiences with water.
