Director: Robert Stone

Distributor: Zeitgeist Films

Country: US

Theatrical Release Date: August 14, 2009

Synopsis: It is now all the rage in the Age of Al Gore and Obama, but can you remember when everyone in America was not "Going Green"? Visually stunning, vastly entertaining and awe-inspiring, "Earth Days" looks back to the dawn and development of the modern environmental movement--from its post-war rustlings in the 1950s and the 1962 publication of Rachel Carson's incendiary bestseller "Silent Spring," to the first wildly successful 1970 Earth Day celebration and the subsequent firestorm of political action. Directed by acclaimed documentarian Robert Stone ("Oswald's Ghost," "Guerrilla: The Taking of Patty Hearst") "Earth Days" is both a poetic meditation on humanity's complex relationship with nature and an engaging history of the revolutionary achievements-and missed opportunities-of groundbreaking eco-activism.
