Humanity is sitting on a ticking time bomb. If the vast
majority of the world's scientists are right, we have just
ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our
entire planet into a tail-spin of epic destruction involving
extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat
waves beyond anything we have ever experienced.
If that sounds like a recipe for serious gloom and doom --
think again. From director Davis Guggenheim comes the
Sundance Film Festival hit, AN
INCONVENIENT TRUTH, which offers a passionate and
inspirational look at one man's fervent crusade to halt
global warming's deadly progress in its tracks by exposing
the myths and misconceptions that surround it. That man is
former Vice President Al Gore, who, in the wake of defeat in
the 2000 election, re-set the course of his life to focus on
a last-ditch, all-out effort to help save the planet from
irrevocable change. In this eye-opening and poignant
portrait of Gore and his "traveling global warming show,"
Gore also proves himself to be one of the most misunderstood
characters in modern American public life. Here he is seen
as never before in the media - funny, engaging, open and
downright on fire about getting the surprisingly stirring
truth about what he calls our "planetary emergency" out to
ordinary citizens before it's too late.
Paramount Classics and Participant Productions present a
film directed by Davis Guggenheim,
AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH. Featuring Al Gore, the film is
produced by Laurie David, Lawrence Bender and Scott Z.
Burns. Jeff Skoll and Davis Guggenheim are the executive
producers and the co-producer is Leslie Chilcott.
