Dirty Oil
Canada 2010, 73 mins
Director: Leslie Iwerks
Director: Leslie Iwerks
Building on the current appetite for environmental films examining issues around natural resources and pollution, DIRTY OIL takes us deep behind the scenes into the strip-mined world of Alberta, Canada. Here the vast and toxic Tar Sands deposit supplies the U.S. with the majority of its oil. Through the eyes of scientists, 'big oil' officials, politicians, doctors, environmentalists and aboriginal citizens directly affected by 'the largest industrial project on the planet today', the filmmakers journey to both sides of the border to see the irreversible toll this 'black gold rush', fuelled by America's addiction to oil, is taking on our planet.
We are pleased to welcome Emily Cox from Greenpeace for a Q&A following this film screening.
