Whisky Feature Film ‘The Water of Life’
Set for Broadcast Premiere
on PBS throughout June 2022
Tuesday, May 31, 2022 (LOS ANGELES, Calif.) — Feature documentary The Water of Life – a whisky film, will make its national US broadcast debut across the PBS Network in June, 2022.
Shot in six countries, on three continents, over three years, The Water of Life (https://www.wateroflifefilm.com) tells the story of the creative revolution that saved Scotland’s once-flagging whisky industry and turned it into the global titan it is today.
Picked up late 2021 by the network’s syndication arm PBS Plus, the 88-minute film will be screened on PBS networks in over 200 markets beginning on June 1. The majority of member stations will premiere in primetime during the week of June 27. PBS will retain the rights to broadcast The Water of Life for one year. For one month, June 1 to July 6, 2022, the film will also be available on the PBS website via pbs.org and the PBS app.
