ENDCIV 2011
http://vodo.net/endciv
END:CIV examines our culture's addiction to systematic violence and 
environmental exploitation, and probes the resulting epidemic of 
poisoned landscapes and shell-shocked nations. Based in part on Endgame, 
the best-selling book by Derrick Jensen, END:CIV asks: "If your homeland 
was invaded by aliens who cut down the forests, poisoned the water and 
air, and contaminated the food supply, would you resist?"

The causes underlying the collapse of civilizations are usually traced 
to overuse of resources. As we write this, the world is reeling from 
economic chaos, peak oil, climate change, environmental degradation, and 
political turmoil. Every day, the headlines re-hash stories of scandal 
and betrayal of the public trust. We don?t have to make outraged demands 
for the end of the current global system - it seems to be coming apart 
already.
But acts of courage, compassion and altruism abound, even in the most 
damaged places. By documenting the resilience of the people hit hardest 
by war and repression, and the heroism of those coming forward to 
confront the crisis head-on, END:CIV illuminates a way out of this 
all-consuming madness and into a saner future.
Backed by Jensen's narrative, the film calls on us to act as if we truly 
love this land. The film trips along at a brisk pace, using music, 
archival footage, motion graphics, animation, slapstick and satire to 
deconstruct the global economic system, even as it implodes around us.

END:CIV illustrates first-person stories of sacrifice and heroism with 
intense, emotionally-charged images that match Jensen's poetic and 
intuitive approach. Scenes shot in the back country provide interludes 
of breathtaking natural beauty alongside clearcut evidence of horrific 
but commonplace destruction.

END:CIV features interviews with Paul Watson, Waziyatawin, Gord Hill, 
Michael Becker, Peter Gelderloos, Lierre Keith, James Howard Kunstler, 
Stephanie McMillan, Qwatsinas, Rod Coronado, John Zerzan and more.
"A fierce critique of systematic violence and industrial civilization, 
End:Civ is not intended for garden-variety environmentalists. If you are 
anywhere below, say, an 8 on that sliding scale of pissed off, then this 
film is going to scare you? which means you should watch it."
-Eugene Weekly

"A tour de force film from Franklin Lopez which does more than justice 
to Derrick Jensen's thesis that industrial civilization is destroying 
life on the planet. Employing all the contemporary audio visual 
techniques our digital world makes possible for a single brilliant 
penurious filmmaker, Lopez harvests sounds and images from our demented 
world to relentlessly show the rape of the mind and the earth. To those 
outside the small choir who see the message of resistance as obvious, 
this powerful film makes them deal with it either by denial or 
acknowledging, yes I see it is obvious." James Becket -Director of The 
Best Revenge

"Franklin Lopez' END:CIV is a labour of love, a stunning 75 minutes film?"
John Zerzan, author of Future Primitive
"By far the most routinely praised contemporary media activist is 
Franklin Lopez. His shows and films not only possess a distinctive look 
and feel, but they also contain a wicked sense of humor that is often 
sorely lacking among alter-globalization activists. Lopez's work engages 
in constructing a new vision where popular culture serves the interests 
of the poor and dispossessed, where humor is reignited within activism, 
and the D.I.Y. ethics of punk and hip-hop allow those with talent and 
gumption to be the media, once again."
-Chris Rob?Pop Matters
"Both the quantity and the quality of this movement's filmmaking is 
increasing. This is the big battlefield on which we fight right now."
