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, getting the film over the finish line and DVD production. 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 institutional DVD is now available for sale or rent through The Cinema Guild. We are working on DVD production for individual sale, event-based screenings and other distribution options. We will also continue to advocate for political solutions to the Niger Delta crisis. 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 and watch our Facebook page to stay informed.
