A documentary to keep your eye out for: Spoil

I recently came upon the trailer for Spoil, a documentary that shows the Keystone XL Pipeline project is bigger than what is going on in America.

In Alberta, Canada, activists have been trying to prevent a massive pipeline from being built, which would carry oil from the Alberta tar sands and through the pristine Great Bear Rainforest on the coast of British Columbia. The film focuses upon the Spirit Bear, a rare bear than only inhabits the Great Bear Rainforest. Spoil has won quite a few awards this year, including the Best Environmental Film in the Vancouver Film Festival and 'Best Environmental Film', 'Best Photography' & Merit Award for Musical Selection (CINE International Film Festival).
 
Check out the trailer.
