    A film by Mark Kitchell 101 min, English, Digital (DCP/Blu-ray), U.S.A, 2012, Documentary FIRST RUN FEATURES The Film Center Building | 630 Ninth Ave. #1213 | New York, NY 10036 (212) 243-0600 | Fax (212) 989-7649 | [email protected] www.firstrunfeatures.com www.firstrunfeatures.com/fiercegreenfire About the Film A FIERCE GREEN FIRE: The Battle for a Living Planet is the first big-picture exploration of the environmental movement – grassroots and global activism spanning fifty years from conservation to climate change. Directed and written by Mark Kitchell, Academy Award- nominated director of Berkeley in the Sixties, and narrated by Robert Redford, Ashley Judd, Van Jones, Isabel Allende and Meryl Streep, the film premiered at Sundance Film Festival 2012, won acclaim at festivals around the world, and in 2013 begins theatrical release as well as educational distribution and use by environmental groups. Inspired by the book of the same name by Philip Shabecoff and informed by advisors like E.O. Wilson and Tom Lovejoy, A FIERCE GREEN FIRE chronicles the largest movement of the 20th century and one of the keys to the 21st. It brings together all the major parts of environmentalism and connects them. It focuses on activism, people fighting to save their homes, their lives, the future – and succeeding against all odds. The film unfolds in five acts, each with a central story and character: • David Brower and the Sierra Club’s battle to halt dams in the Grand Canyon • Lois Gibbs and Love Canal residents’ struggle against 20,000 tons of toxic chemicals • Paul Watson and Greenpeace’s campaigns to save whales and baby harp seals • Chico Mendes and Brazilian rubbertappers’ fight to save the Amazon rainforest • Bill McKibben and the 25-year effort to address the impossible issue – climate change Surrounding these main stories are strands like environmental justice, going back to the land, and movements of the global south such as Wangari Maathai in Kenya.

  • The Living Weapon Monday, June 8, 2009 on PBS Pbs.Org/Americanexperience
    The Living Weapon Monday, June 8, 2009 on PBS pbs.org/americanexperience You can't see it. You can't hear it. You can't smell it. Yet a biological weapon could decimate an entire city. On Monday, June 8, AMERICAN EXPERIENCE presents The Living Weapon, a harrowing tale of ambition, scientific discovery, and the lengths to which one man would go to protect his country. From producer John Rubin, this one-hour documentary offers an unprecedented look at more than two decades of closed-door meetings, secret test sites, determined scientists, and human subjects that attempted to turn some of the world's most potent germs into some of the world's most effective weapons. In 1942, the United States government, sanctioned by President Franklin Roosevelt, began a highly classified program to research and develop bioweapons - the first in a series of steps, motivated by fear of powerful enemies that brought the United States to a point of no return. "It was a turning point in the way America was willing to fight," says producer John Rubin. "Roosevelt's decision acknowledged the readiness to use a kind of weapon that military leaders had long shunned as dishonorable." "Today, perhaps more than ever, people are aware of what a biological attack could do to a city or a nation," says AMERICAN EXPERIENCE executive producer Mark Samels. "The program was, in many ways, a consequence of the mindset that scientific and medical advances could be turned on their heads to create massive destruction." CREDITS A John Rubin Productions, Inc. film for AMERICAN EXPERIENCE WRITTEN PRODUCED and DIRECTED BY John Rubin EDITED BY Jim Ohm CO-PRODUCED BY James Donald DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY Ian Kerr MUSIC BY Christopher Mangum NARRATED BY Liev Schreiber AMERICAN EXPERIENCE is a production of WGBH Boston Senior producer Sharon Grimberg Executive producer Mark Samels Exclusive corporate funding for AMERICAN EXPERIENCE is provided by Liberty Mutual.
