It is happening all across America-rural landowners wake up one day to find a lucrative offer from an energy company wanting to lease their property. Reason? The company hopes to tap into a reservoir dubbed the "Saudi Arabia of natural gas." Halliburton developed a way to get the gas out of the ground-a hydraulic drilling process called "fracking"-and suddenly America finds itself on the precipice of becoming an energy superpower.

Half an hour into the running time, I learned that subsurface natural gas extraction and the companies that profit from it are evil. For the next hour I continued to learn that subsurface natural gas extraction and the companies that profit from it are evil, only in more detail. Oh, and plus the director's grim voice over and shaky camerawork as a symbol of the confusion and unkindness of the world we live in.
