CONFESSIONS OF AN ECO TERRORIST
Directed By: Peter Jay Brown
Runtime: 90 mins
Stars: Peter Brown, Robert Hunter and Paul Watson
Confessions of an Eco-Terrorist is a surprisingly entertaining agitprop documentary recounting the exploits of Paul Watson and his Sea Shepherd crew, whose specialty is constructing newsworthy confrontations with environmental bad guys all over the world. Their signature tactic, however, is ramming other ships, the drama of which makes for compelling film. While the film doesn't pretend to be balanced (there are no interviews with those being rammed) neither is it purely self-righteous polemic.

We've been hearing about the North Pacific Garbage Gyre, a vast spinning flotation of "disposable" plastic crap such as old Bic lighters and rubber duckies. Psst. This stuff is now landing on Hawai‘i's beaches. In "Plastic Tide" director Jeremy Konner dives into the oceans of Maui, to bring awareness to the rising issue of plastic waste in paradise.
