Water for Life
Samsung

Part of a series of films for Samsung x CNN, telling stories of inclusivity and accessibility.

This one took me to Paraguay to shoot with high school students Diego Fernandez and Jazmin Florentin, who are inventing solutions to their country's lack of potable water — particularly in rural communities. It was humbling to witness the challenges Paraguayans face daily, and equally inspiring to see young people meeting those challenges with creativity and resolve.

These students are imagining answers to problems the rest of the world hasn't solved yet. I'm grateful to everyone who invited us into their spaces and their lives, and to the creative teams across the U.S., South America, and Asia who came together to help tell this story.
