OCEAN with David Attenborough, the world’s leading natural historian, takes viewers on a breathtaking journey showing there is nowhere more vital for our survival, more full of life, wonder, or surprise, than the ocean. The celebrated broadcaster and filmmaker reveals how his lifetime has coincided with the great age of ocean discovery.

Invisible Hand

Wednesday, February 8, 7 p.m.

Winner of three Best Documentary awards and the first film to explore the Rights of Nature movement,  “Invisible Hand” focuses on one of the defining battles of our time — where Nature, democracy and capitalism face off – and asks: “Who will speak for Nature?”

In 2014, for the first time in United States history, an ecosystem filed to defend itself in a lawsuit claiming its ‘right to exist' in Grant Township, PA. The 700 inhabitants filed a suit to prevent a permit for a fracked waste water injection well that threatened their drinking water. Both the drilling corporation and the State counter-sued. “Invisible Hand” is a metaphor for how, in a free market economy, capitalists and other self-interested individuals operate to exploit nature for profit, and who loses along the way.

Executive produced and by narrated by Mark Ruffalo. 85 minutes. A discussion follows.
