“Gold and Helfand paint a considerably livelier cinematic tableau than An Inconvenient Truth as they interview a diverse cross-section of artists, scientists and average Joes who are devoting themselves to the betterment of the environment.”
— Scott Foundas, Variety
Synopsis
In their signature upbeat comedic style, Daniel Gold and Judith Helfand have created an entertaining, character-driven documentary about global warming. Among the profiles are a Pulitzer Prizewinning journalist who repeatedly tries to retire but can’t, the Weather Channel’s first climatologist with a “global-warming beat” who must pack her Ph.D. into 30-second sound bites, a snow groomer turned biodiesel entrepreneur, and an Inuit community that must decide whether to stay and risk getting washed into the sea or move their entire village.
Directed by Daniel B. Gold and Judith Helfand
USA, 2006; 100 min., Beta SP
