DESCRIPTION:The film’s Peninsula premiere will be followed by a discussion with its 
 producers and directors, Gerard Ungerman and Audrey Brohy.  Ungerman and 
 Brohy produced and directed the internationally acclaimed film "Hidden Wars 
 of Desert Storm", which was released in 2000, and then turned their 
 investigative and filmmaking talents to making "The Oil Factor".  Based on 
 a year and a half of investigation and a three-month trip covering Iraq, 
 Pakistan and Afghanistan, "The Oil Factor" looks at both the human cost and 
 the greater geo-strategic picture of George Bush's "war on terror".  The 
 filmmakers look at the patterns of energy use and energy policy in the U.S. 
 and the Middle East’s hold on the world’s oil reserves and asks, were 
 the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan really meant to reduce terrorist 
 threats, or were they meant to guarantee that America can continue to 
 consume outrageous amounts of petroleum?  Along with solid facts and 
 figures, clear, illustrative maps and graphics and original footage shot on 
 location, "The Oil Factor" features such personalities as Zbigniew 
 Brzezinski, Noam Chomsky, The Project for the New American Century Director 
 Gary Schmitt, best-seller _Taliban_ author Ahmed Rashid, and the Pentagon's 
 Karen Kwiatkowski.  $7 - $15 sliding scale admission benefits Peninsula 
 Peace and Justice Center.  Presented in conjunction with the Spangenberg 
 Film Society.\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2005/02/04/57233.php
