Fire Water is a groundbreaking indictment of Australia's mandatory water fluoridation policy, featuring health and scientific professionals, State Members of Parliament, former MP's, activists, sufferers and concerned citizens. The film exposes the truth about the industrial-grade fluoridation chemicals used to fluoridate Australian public water supplies, backed by exclusive FOI documents. Fire Water also considers both the current and inevitable impacts of these toxins on the population, explores the ethical issues of mass medication without informed consent, critiques the flawed science of fluoride promotion, and documents gathering momentum of community fightback against the practice.
