Green Screen: Five Environmental Films Set to Shine at Sundance
Next week at the Sundance Film Festival, documentary maker Mark Kitchell will screen his history of the environmental movement, A Fierce Green Fire (see "Lights, Camera, Activism!" for the story behind the highly anticipated debut). But Kitchell's film isn't the only one at the prestigious Park City, Utah, festival -- where Al Gore's Inconvenient Truth made its first big splash -- that tackles serious environmental issues, from nuclear power to bullying agro-business. Here are the top titles ready to turn the screen green.
A Fierce Green Fire
The story of what, in the eyes of many, has become the most important social movement ever: the environmental movement. Inspired by New York Times journalist Philip Shabecoff's book of the same name, director Mark Kitchell documents crucial moments in the history of environmental activism, bringing pivotal moments to life across five decades.
