Coming on the heels of the massive protest in DC — where over 12,000 protesters encircled the White House — the film explores the threat posed by the Keystone XL pipeline as well as the sustainable alternatives to dirty tar sands oil. It has become the most controversial environmental battle in the U.S. today.

Across the heartland of America, farmers and landowners are fighting to protect their land, their water, and their livelihood. Routed over 1,700 miles from the tar sands of Alberta to the refineries of the Texas Gulf Coast, this pipeline is set to cross the country’s largest freshwater resource, the Ogallala Aquifer, and the fragile Sandhills of Nebraska. A spill along the Keystone XL pipeline’s proposed route could threaten

the water supply of millions, and pose devastating consequences to human health, livestock, agriculture, and endangered wildlife.

Narrated by Daryl Hannah. Directed by Academy Award® nominated director Leslie Iwerks.
