Jo In The Water + Q&A
About Jo In The Water + Q&A
Jo In The Water follows a passionate sea swimmer turned reluctant activist, Exmouth-based Jo Bateman, as she takes on one of the UK’s biggest water companies in a David-and-Goliath battle to protect our waters from devastating sewage pollution. As Jo’s courage helps ignite a growing movement, this film exposes the dire state of our water system and asks - who will stand up for our right to swim in clean natural waters?
Jo in the Water is a feature-length documentary that isn’t just about water pollution. It’s about connection—to nature, to our own sense of place, and to our responsibility for the world around us.
The screening will be followed by a live onstage Q&A with Jo Bateman and director Pip Piper.
