A Crude Awakening

(Click on image to purchase the DVD)

Wonderfully crafted by award-winning European filmmakers Basil Gelpke and Ray McCormack, it shows you needn’t be a conspiracy theorist to see a connection between America’s current obsessions with the Middle East and national security, and the world’s looming oil crisis. The frenzied search for alternative sources of energy now being pursued by the largest multi-national energy corporations and academic institutes makes it clear they also believe a crisis is fast approaching.
