Jo in the Water + Q&A 12A

Screening to mark Earth Day 2026, Pip Piper’s new feature documentary follows passionate sea swimmer turned reluctant activist, Jo Bateman, as she takes on one of the UK's biggest water companies in a David-and-Goliath battle against 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, and for the species and communities that rely upon them?

Director Pip Piper joins us for an online Q&A following the screening.

Showing as part of Green screen, a new monthly strand in our programme presenting films looking at climate change, activism and sustainability.
