DESCRIPTION:STRUGGLE IN THE WOODS: Views of Extraction   (30 min)  a documentary by   
 Lame Ox Productions & HAVC   narrated by Remedy  The struggle over Northern 
 California’s remaining ancient forests is as dramatic as the trees 
 themselves. While Houston based Maxxam, Inc. converts forested hillsides 
 into cash and clearcuts, erosion and flooding wreak havoc on downstream 
 neighbors. In response, frontline forest activists occupy the branches of 
 threatened old-growth trees. The extraction of the ancient redwoods, and 
 the treesitters who defend them, raises alarms over the lengths a 
 corporation will go to destroy the public trust.  Featuring the diverse 
 views of residents who live downstream of Pacific Lumber’s clear-cuts, 
 the activists who live in the high canopy and the extractors hired by the 
 company to remove the tree-sitters.   Remedy will talk and answer questions 
 following the screening.  Will also show portions of Fire in the Eyes about 
 police use of pepper spray on non-violent protestors advocating for the 
 protection of old-growth forests.  The pepper spray by Q-tip case is on 
 trial in San Francisco starting April 12.  \n
