The Story of Plastic is a seething expose uncovering the ugly truth behind the current global plastic pollution crisis. Striking footage shot over three continents illustrates the ongoing catastrophe: fields full of garbage, veritable mountains of trash; rivers and seas clogged with waste; and skies choked with the poisonous runoff from plastic production and recycling processes with no end in sight. Original animations, interviews with experts and activists, and never-before-filmed scenes reveal the disastrous consequences of the flood of plastic smothering ecosystems and poisoning communities around the world – and the global movement rising up in response.

It’s a classic David vs. Goliath scenario: in the oil and gas strongholds of Louisiana's River Parishes and Appalachia's Rust Belt, where false economic promises and industrial pollution have become the norm, fed-up residents square off against their politicians and big business, proving to be a formidable foe. Thrust into the role of accidental activists, the group exposes how racism, classism, and corruption fuel the systems around them, and channel their collective power to show that ordinary people can fight back – and that giants do fall.

If the ice sheet covering Greenland melted, global sea levels would rise 21 feet, profoundly impacting our planet. How, why, and when could this happen? A few years ago, scientists found lost sediment from a secret sub-ice Cold War base in the Arctic from the 1960s that holds clues to a time when Greenland Ice Sheet was gone. The Memory of Darkness, Light, and Ice is an hour-long documentary about the discovery of this sediment and the critical implications of the science to our future. The finding that the ice sheet melted in the past completely transforms our understanding of the stability of the Greenland Ice Sheet.

A man pursues his dying wish while battling lymphoma, joining pioneers of the green burial movement in conserving habitat and revolutionizing the funeral industry.

Explores the family dynamic between an introspective teenage girl and her single mother
