An Inconvenient Truth offers a passionate and inspirational look at one man's fervent crusade to halt global warming's deadly progress in its tracks by exposing the myths and misconceptions that surround it. That man is former Vice President Al Gore, who, in the wake of defeat in the 2000 election, reset the course of his life to focus on an all-out effort to help save the planet from irrevocable change. In this eye-opening portrait of his "traveling global warming show", Gore proves himself to be one of the most misunderstood characters in modern American public life. Here he is seen as never before in the media - funny, engaging, and open about getting the surprisingly stirring truth about what he calls our "planetary emergency" out to ordinary citizens before it's too late.

About the Movie An Inconvenient Truth
«In over 20 years, 200,000 scientists in 100 countries have generated a mass of surprisingly concordant information on the impact of this crisis: that we are the cause and that the consequences will be catastrophic. Then there are the sceptics, many of which paid by the polluting industries, people never seriously considered by the scientific community, who are perpetrating misinformation in order to prevent people from seeing the real proportions of this phenomenon. Recent scientific information has been manipulated and our ability to act has been paralyzed». (Al Gore)
