Does a good job of showing why/how a multi-billion lawsuit can get dragged out over decades. I wonder if it's the messiness of the case or the filmmakers that it's never all laid out clearly; it just accrues details as it rolls along.

WAY to SOFT. This story needs a much more biting, much harsher, much more against the grain approach than this soft American style docu.

"Crude is both a tribute to human-rights tenacity and a sobering account of the multinational-Moloch greed that can keep justice in limbo." - Fernando F. Croce

When well-meaning Trudie Styler, founder of Rainforest Foundation (and Sting's wife), comes on, even Farjardo's convictions and Berlinger's early scenes about native culture and ancestry get swept up amidst hubristic hubbub.
