In developing countries, waterborne diseases such as cholera, typhoid, and dysentery kill thousands every day. Extensive animation was used in this film to illustrate clearly the path of disease and to unify the film's message for audiences of diverse cultural backgrounds. The film is aimed primarily at health care workers and water and sanitation engineers and technicians in developing countries. It is a prime source of information for policymakers.
