Trespassing
(2005, 116 min.) US
Director: Carlos DeMenezes
Producer: Susana Lagudis

This compelling documentary shows the risks indigenous people and other environmentalists take to protect sacred Native American lands, the air, and the water from desecration by nuclear waste. It examines the deadly controversy around land rights, uranium mining, nuclear testing, and the disposal of nuclear waste in the Four Corners area, Nevada's Yucca Mountain, and California's Mojave Desert.
