ABOUT THE MOVIE:

Dark Waters  (rated M, for mature audiences) is a thrilling drama, based on a true story. The movie was released in 2019 and has scored 4 ½ out of 5 stars since then!  It’s only just been released in Australia. 

An American lawyer (played by Mark Ruffalo – highly awarded actor and producer) uncovers a dark secret which connects a growing number of unexplained deaths to one of the world's largest corporations, Du Pont, a chemical company.
He takes on an environmental lawsuit against this company, exposing a lengthy history of pollution. While trying to expose the truth, the lawyer finds himself risking his future, his family and his own life. 

It’s a 2 hour thriller, based on an 2016 article published in the New York Times magazine: "The Lawyer Who Became DuPont's Worst Nightmare" by Nathaniel Rich.

Here’s  some reviews:

• Dark Waters feels starker and truer than most; it's patient, unafraid, and stripped of any kind of hollow self-congratulations.
  source: the Wall Street journal

• Dark Waters powerfully relays a real-life tale of infuriating malfeasance, honouring the victims and laying blame squarely at the feet of the perpetrators. Audience score: 95%  (2,622 viewers)
   source: Rotten Tomatoes

• “…entirely impossible …. to leave without a palpable sense of fury, a real world, off-screen outrage directed not just at a particular issue but at a particular company.
  source: Ben Lee, The Guardian

• If you liked “Erin Brockovich,” you’ll probably like this too.

Hope to see you there.  Bring a friend too

This tragic summer shows that catastrophic climate change is not in the future, but NOW. Great stands of precious forest have been destroyed, and yet, the Victorian government keeps logging what is left.
Once again, the Healesville and Upper Yarra Greens branch is offering an opportunity to experience our majestic forests and to witness first hand the threat that logging poses to a fragile ecosystem.
Be inspired and informed by experts on the forest. We’ll drive to key locations, where you’ll see the forest at its best -- and after VicForests has done its worst. There will also be an opportunity to hear the latest on the Possums’ Federal Court Case.
