Hindsight and Foresight: 20 Years After the Exxon Valdez Spill (2009)DVDRip

Movie: Hindsight and Foresight: 20 Years After the Exxon Valdez Spill (2009)

no poster Hindsight and Foresight: 20 Years After the Exxon Valdez Spill (2009) “The 1989 Exxon Valdez oil spill was a watershed moment in the environmental history of the U.S. and changed the way oil and chemical spills are considered and dealt with in this country. It also thrust a little-known federal agency, the Hazardous Materials Response Branch of NOAA (the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration), into the public eye as the group provided scientific guidance for the oil spill cleanup. The film reviews the events in the early days of the oil spill, shows current conditions, and identifies challenges for the future as it asks the questions: what does the twentieth anniversary of the spill mean and what have we learned?

Happy Birthday Loki (2009)DVDRip

Movie: Happy Birthday Loki (2009)

no poster Happy Birthday Loki (2009) “‘Happy Birthday Loki’ tells the story of a 40-year-old housemaid who was abducted from her village in Orissa as a child and sold. Though her life is far from perfect, she does live a somewhat fulfilling one today. She eats more than a growing boy, prefers to use the stairs and is addicted to television. For someone with a horrifying past (she has also lost her ability to speak coherently) she is a symbol of courage and hope for everyone. If we talk about human rights, Loki has had no idea about what she’s entitled to and if we talk about women’s rights, she has had all of hers infringed. There are thousands of ‘Lokies’ who live in Mumbai city. They’ve been sold, bought, traded, raped, forced to work, beaten, burnt and sometimes, killed. Written by Rohan Sabharwal”
