If a Tree Falls - 2012 Oscar Nominee for Best Feature-Length Documentary

A well-paced account of the Earth Liberation Front, the story is told with an obvious bias favoring some of the ELF members and their cause. It nevertheless maintains an even-handedness throughout, even in how it portrays some of the prosecutors positively and alternatively, displays an obvious distaste for certain of the ELF participants.

That balance is carried throughout the film in documenting the historical events, the then-and-now characterization of the participants, and maintaining an absorbing storyline from the beginning to the closing credits.
