Neil Young The Hollywood Reporter Informative, ire-stoking but formally conventional... May 19, 2012 Full Review Louis Proyect Counterpunch.org Like fellow German Werner Herzog, Fatih Akin is as adept in documentary film as narrative. Also, like Herzog, he a humanist. This film pits the salt of the earth against a bureaucratic environmental nightmare in a small town where his ancestors lived.

Audience Member Intéressant mais trop long, bien que le film ne dure qu'1h30. Il aurait gagné en impact dans un format de 52 min car il ne fait que montrer les mêmes choses encore et encore, et, si la cause est très juste, d'un point de vue cinématographique c'est un peu lassant malheureusement... Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Documents ten years of protest, resistance, and devastation. At its most frustrating when showing the complete indifference of many government officials and the abdication of responsibility for damage resulting poor planning and development to 'the will of God." Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
