Sinopse
The easy oil is gone. Now, the biggest construction project on the planet is transforming a pristine Canadian wilderness, and scientists are debating the environmental fall-out. In the age of the tar sands, we know there are sacrifices to be made. What no one expected was that a tiny Native community living down the river would reach out to the world for help, and be heard. A feature-length visual tour de force, taking us inside the David and Goliath struggle playing out within an environmental issue of our age.
