DESCRIPTION:SFFS Investigative Documentary Week Presents:\n Slippery Slopes: A Forum 
 About Crude and Investigative Functions in Film\n\nFree Forum after 12:00 
 screening\n\nat Landmark Lumiere Theatre\n(1572 California St)\n\nThe San 
 Francisco Film Society will present its second annual Investigative 
 Documentary Week featuring the free SFFS Focus: Investigative Documentary 
 program Slippery Slopes: A Forum About Crude and the Investigative 
 Functions of Film, 2:00 pm Saturday, September 26 at Landmark’s Lumiere 
 Theatre in conjunction with a screening of Crude (SFIFF 2009), directed by 
 Joe Berlinger. Tickets to the screening must be purchased 
 separately.\n\nSFFS Investigative Documentary Week is copresenting Crude, 
 which opens for a one week run at the Lumiere and Shattuck (Berkeley) 
 theaters on Friday, September 25. Berlinger will be on hand for audience Q 
 & A following the first evening screening Friday at the Lumiere and the 
 first evening screening Saturday at the Shattuck.\nCrude, a lively and 
 gripping documentary, chronicles the shifting course of a lawsuit brought 
 by 30,000 Ecuadoreans against Chevron over its responsibility for the 
 country’s contaminated waters and streams. Alternately inspiring, funny, 
 disturbing and infuriating, Crude offers a thoughtful and complex look at 
 the issues surrounding human rights and corporate behavior in Latin 
 America.\n\nFollowing the 12:00 noon Saturday screening of the film at the 
 Lumiere, the forum will address the functions, roles and processes of 
 documentary film as a form of investigative journalism. Phil Bronstein, 
 editor-at-large at the San Francisco Chronicle, will moderate a discussion 
 with Crude director Joe Berlinger and Robert Rosenthal, executive director 
 of the Center of Investigative Reporting. Other panelists are yet to be 
 confirmed.\n\nFor more information visit sffs.org \n
