Four university students journey to a remote village in Uganda to discover a radically simple solution to an urgent global problem. Using only the power of the sun, SODIS (Solar Water Disinfection) is cheap, effective, and has the potential to save a million lives. 'A Simpler Way' explores the need for simple, affordable solutions to global development issues and the role of personal experience in meaningful, transformative education. Directed by Michael O. Snyder. Produced by Tom Bowling and Doug Baer. Interdependent Pictures and Frostburg State University in association with WaterSchool. All rights reserved ©2016.
