Black Wave -- the Legacy of the Exxon Valdez.
On March 24, 1989 the Exxon Valdez oil supertanker ran aground in Alaska, discharging millions of gallons of crude oil. It was the largest environmental disaster in North American history, until now. For 20 years Riki Ott and the fishermen of the town of Cordova have waged the longest legal battle in U.S. history against the world's most powerful oil company (ExxonMobil). We will hear about the environmental, social and economic consequences of the black wave that changed their lives forever. Will we experience the same fate here on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico?

Plunder -- The Crime of Our Time
This is a hard-hitting investigative film by Danny Schechter. The "News Dissector" explores how the financial crisis was built on a foundation of criminal activity, uncovering the connection between the collapse of the housing market and the economic catastrophe that followed. To tell this story Schechter speaks with bankers involved in these activities, respected economists, insider experts, top journalists including Paul Krugman, and even a convicted white-collar criminal, Sam Antar, who blows the whistle on intentionally dishonest practices. The film also delves into the complicity of the major media outlets, which failed to sound the alarm or investigate wrongdoers. A top financial journalist and media analyst as well as a financier explain how the business media became embedded in the culture it was covering, similar to embedded reporters in Iraq.
