SHORT SYNOPSIS

In the fall of 2014, for the first time in United States history, an ecosystem filed to defend itself in a lawsuit claiming its ‘right to exist’ in Grant Township, Pennsylvania. For attempting such a radical act, Grant’s rural community of 700 people were sued by a corporation, then by the state government, and are now locked in a battle to defend the watershed they call home, the water they drink, and enforce the local laws they enacted that gave legal Rights to Nature.

Half a continent away in Standing Rock, North Dakota, the same industry threatening Grant Twp. is using militarized force against indigenous tribes and allies fighting to protect Mother Earth. The two, Grant Township and Standing Rock, are joined in an international fight to protect more than just water. They fight for their community, democracy, and for Nature as a living entity unto itself.

Produced by award-winning actor Mark Ruffalo, INVISIBLE HAND takes you behind the curtain of the global economy where ‘Rights of Nature’ becomes “capitalism’s one true opponent.”

We’ve Done This Before

Joshua B. Pribanic and Melissa A. Troutman are the writers and co-directors of INVISIBLE HAND. They’re also co-founders of the investigative news nonprofit Public Herald and produced their first documentary TRIPLE DIVIDE in 2013, and TRIPLE DIVIDE [REDACTED] in 2017, which were co-narrated by Award-winning actor Mark Ruffalo and featured investigations of unconventional oil and gas development, a.k.a. fracking.

Public Herald’s work attracted The Daily Show with Jon Stewart to produce a segment on fracking in 2013, and has been featured on HuffPost Live, Pittsburgh NPR and over 200 other national and international media outlets.
