On April 25, 2014, officials in Flint switched the water supply from the Great Lakes to the Flint River, poisoning its residents and leading to one of the worst human-caused environmental disasters in American history. In this explosive documentary filmed over five years, award-winning journalist/filmmaker Anthony Baxter's FLINT goes beyond the headlines to investigate the escalating betrayal and deceit by government officials, the breakdown in public trust and faith in official science, and ultimately, the community's enduring fight for one of our most basic rights: clean water.

Baldwin, for his part, is heard less often than one would expect in a two-hour documentary; the people of Flint largely tell this story through their own words and extensive archive, and its far from pretty.

It is a good job someone was there to record it, because it is a tale that would challenge even the most credulous.

Rated: 3/5

It's very smart filmmaking. [Anthony Baxter] has created a film that transcends the subject of Flint.
