Rousing audiences at the Sundance Film Festival and in theaters around America, Crude is the latest masterpiece from filmmaker Joe Berlinger (Brother's Keeper, Paradise Lost, Metallica: Some Kind of Monster). This riveting film tells the epic story of one of the largest and most controversial legal cases on the planet: The infamous $27 billion 'Amazon Chernobyl' case pitting 30,000 rainforest dwellers in Ecuador against U.S. oil giant Chevron. Berlinger skillfully takes US into this high stakes legal drama, which involves global politics, the environmental movement, celebrity activism, human rights advocacy, multinational corporate power, and the fate of disappearing indigenous cultures.
