Variety reviews Sweet Crude

"A movie about crime and shame, 'Sweet Crude' is also a classic example of urgent, righteous-indignation agitprop cinema that succeeds in being not just angry, but art." Read the full review.

Sweet Crude still needs your support

Don't miss our limited edition Sabotage poster fundraiser to help defray the huge cost of our crew's detainment in Nigeria and getting the film over the finish line. This is a fabulous piece of art and one of the best investments around these days. Get the details here.

What's Next?

Sweet Crude is moving ahead on several fronts. Our world premiere was April 4th 2009 at the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival. Meanwhile, we are seeking a distributor and entering more festivals. We will also continue to advocate for political solutions with U.S. lawmakers. Many people have asked where they can see the film or how to get a copy. We will let you know as soon as we know – so sign up for our email list to stay informed.
