Imagine if New York's taps ran dry. What would we do? We'd probably walk through the streets in search of the nearest water source, in this case Central Park Pond, and have no choice but to bring the water home to serve to our families, to cook, clean and drink. This 60 second short allows us to imagine for a moment what life without clean water would be like in New York City. Oscar winner Jennifer Connelly, Hotel Rwanda director Terry George, and award- winning cinematographer Ellen Kuras volunteered their time to shoot the piece.

American Idol was generous enough to donate 60 seconds of national airtime to screen our Public Service announcement. Watch it tonight for Idol Gives Back at 7:30PM EST on FOX.
