00:00What is the relationship between cinema and water?
00:04There is a natural link between ACEA and us as main operators on the issue of water.
00:09We wanted to strengthen it by linking the issue of water to cinema for two reasons,
00:14which are the first, that cinema is often the precursor of those that are trends
00:19and certainly that of the conservation of water resources is becoming more and more a theme on a planetary level.
00:25And the other is the fact that, even banally, to produce films from a digital point of view,
00:32there is a theme of the use of servers, the use of all the technology that are the major consumers of water.
00:38The Contest was born from the idea of promoting effective communication on the issue of reuse of water,
00:46which is becoming the theme with which we can certainly address a lot of the issue raised today,
00:54as you have also seen this summer in all of Italy and not only in Italy,
00:58on the issue of the reduced availability of water resources.
01:02As for the process of selecting the winner, there was a whole jury structure at various levels
01:11that then led to identify this very nice court,
01:16which is certainly very effective in showing the importance of this theme.
01:23The goal is precisely, through these initiatives as there are others,
01:27I remember that we are also committed with the Ministry of Education and the University
01:32to launch what is water education in schools.
01:36We were the institution that signed a protocol a few months ago
01:40to start this important path that will concern all the young people who are today in the school system,
01:48and to raise their awareness of the importance of taking care of the resource.
