From GreenpeaceCanada – Shot primarily from a helicopter, filmmaker Peter Mettler‘s “Petropolis: Aerial Perspectives on the Alberta Tar Sands” offers an unparalleled view of the world’s largest industrial, capital and energy project.

Just finished watching it on Netflix.ca. Beautifully captured from a birds eye view. Everything comes into complete perspective once you see it from above. I loved how there was no injected-celebrity narration needed, the compelling images and typical sounds of development says it all.
