A Crude Awakening
The Oil CrashFilmmakers Basil Gelpke and Ray McCormack team up to deliver a grave warning in this documentary on the oil industry. Gelpke and McCormack are firm believers that the world's oil resources are in dangerously short supply, and that the price of oil is about to rise to previously unthinkable levels.
The film also offers some possible solutions to the oil crisis by looking at alternative energy sources. A shocking wake-up call that is set to do for energy what Al Gore's 'An Inconvenient Truth' did for the environment, 'A Crude Awakening' is a compelling, intelligent and urgent warning that the age of abundant oil is over.
Featuring testimonies from the world's top experts, this startling documentary reaches an ominous yet logical conclusion the Earth's oil supplies are peaking and a crisis of global proportions looms. Even more alarmingly, industrial societies don't have any plans how to deal with the shortage, threatening the future of our post-industrialised fossil fuel-addicted civilization with disaster.
