Description
"In 2009, filmmaker Josh Fox learned his home in the Delaware River Basin was on top of the Marcellus Shale, a rock formation containing natural gas that stretches across New York, Pennsylvania, and huge stretches of the Northeast. He was offered $100,000 to lease his land for a new method of drilling developed by Halliburton and soon discovered this was only a part of a 34-state drilling campaign, the largest domestic gas drilling boom in history. [The film] documents Josh's cross-country odyssey to find out if the controversial process of hydraulic fracturing -- or fracking -- is actually safe...His inquiries lead him ever deeper into a web of secrets, lies, conspiracy and contamination -- a web that potentially stretches to threaten the New York Watershed." -- Container.
