Synopsis
Our civilization¿ addiction to oil puts it on a collision course with disaster. Compelling, intelligent, and highly disturbing, the film visits with the world¿ top experts and comes to a startling but logical conclusion our industrial society, built on cheap and readily available oil, must be completely re-imagined and overhauled. The world¿ oil supplies are peaking and the crisis of global shortage looms; we are running out of oil and we don¿ have a plan.Theatrical Release Date
