Saving the World, One Frame at a Time

The 27th annual series showcasing feature-length and short docs nominated for Academy Awards continues with a double bill. First, the Leo DiCaprio-produced The 11th Hour (Leila Conners Petersen, Nadia Conners), a look at the urgency of our planet's perilous state from the POV of noted politicians, scientists and other heavy weights. Plus, Pete Seeger: The Power of Song (Jim Brown), a profile of the life of the singer/songwriter, told through archival footage and clips from his own personal films.
