Tree-Sit: the Art of Resistance (2003)

Amidst the redwood rainforest of Humboldt County a ragged band of young activists have taken the art of resistance to new heights. Surrounded by clearcuts while perched in the high canopy of ancient forests for extended periods of time, activists such as Julia Butterfly Hill have used creative, non-violent, direct action and civil disobedience to slow down the chainsaws and bring attention to the destruction of old growth forests.

"Tree-Sit:the Art of Resistance" (2003) is a poignant look inside the Earth First! movement. It takes us from the struggle to "Save Headwaters Forest"; the assassination attempt of Judi Bari; the pepper spray torture of young activists; to the establishment of permanent "tree-villages" hundreds of feet up; and culminates in the WTO protests on the tear-gassed filled streets of Seattle.

also showing 11/21, the 12 minute

Veggie Van Voyage (2003)

Joshua Tickell documents an inspirational journey through the windows of his "Veggie Van", the only van to take a 2-year long adventure across the USA fueled by biodiesel made from used French fry oil. We meet tree huggers, scientists, farmers and visionaries along the way.
