| CRUDE: The Real Price of Oil "A fascinating and important story. Crude does an extraordinary job of merging journalism and art." Christiane Amanpour, CNN Chief International Correspondent Winner of 19 international awards, CRUDE takes you inside a riveting, high stakes drama steeped in global politics, the environmental movement, celebrity activism, human rights advocacy, multinational corporate power, and rapidly-disappearing indigenous cultures. Three years in the making, this cinéma-vérité feature from acclaimed filmmaker Joe Berlinger is the epic story of one of the largest and most controversial legal cases on the planet - an inside look at the infamous $27 billion "Amazon Chernobyl" case. Presenting a complex situation from multiple viewpoints, the film subverts the conventions of advocacy filmmaking as it examines a complicated situation from all angles while bringing an important story of environmental peril and human suffering into focus. *See also BLOOD AND OIL: The Dangers and Consequences of America's Growing Dependence on Foreign Petroleum | |||||||||
