Crude

Joe Berlinger's gripping documentary follows the lawsuit of thousands of Ecuadorans against Chevron for one of the worst environment contamination in the Amazon where literally thousands died from the toxic waste dumped in the nature. In the David versus Goliath tale, Berlinger follows the case from the beginning through several victories in court that remains open due to Chevron's deep pockets that tries to drag it instead of doing the right thing. A powerful film that shows the corporate greed at its worst. YRCinema's coverage of the San Francisco International Film Festival.
