OUT OF BALANCE: EXXON MOBIL'S IMPACT ON CLIMATE CHANGE (English)
A documentary about one of the largest, most powerful companies in the world. The primary focus is on ExxonMobil's spearheading of a misinformation campaign about the human impact on climate and the urgency to move away from fossil fuel dependence. Out of Balance also puts ExxonMobil's actions into historical context, from Standard Oil days, to Exxon Valdez, to the present, showing a distinct pattern of behavior. Through leading climate scientists and writers such as Bill McKibben and Elizabeth Kolbert, the film points to the actions we all need to take in order to ensure a livable planet for future generations. (Joe Public Films, 2006)

GREENPEACE: MAKING A STAND (English)
What inspires people to risk their lives for their beliefs - to sail a ship into a nuclear test zone, to get between a pod of whales and an explosive harpoon, or to block bulldozers mowing down a forest? This documentary looks at the 35 year evolution of Greenpeace from the early days of the environmentalist movement, in the 1970's, to the front lines of a current campaign in Argentina.
