A mother, father and their 16-year-old son live on a hill at the end of a village, where they wash hotel sheets for a living. The water supply is inconsistent, and they often find themselves without any water. A couple of drillers -- a father and his daughter -- show up to solve the water supply problem. Soon, the family's harmonious world shatters into pieces -- everyone loves and hates everyone else. The thirst for love is so great that only death can quench it.

Audience Member A movie about climate change and environmental damage, but the title "Thirst" does not only refer to the lack of water but also to sexual thirst Great direction: the Images do not need dialogues to say a lot.
