This month’s films for Earth Cinema Circle include Addicted to Plastic, Summer Storm, The Story of Stuff and Red Gold.

Addicted to Plastic is a documentary that examines our dependence on one of the most ubiquitous, and alternately toxic, man-made substances on the planet: plastic.

Summer Storm is an animated short film that follows two friends who save their neighborhood, and the world, with science!

In, The Story of Stuff, Annie Leonard, an expert on international sustainability and environmental health issues, looks at the underside of production and consumption in the United States.

Red Gold features filmmakers Travis Rummel and Ben Knight who spend 70 days in rural Bristol Bay, Alaska, documenting the conflict, beauty and way of life for sockeye salmon fisherman. This tight-knit community is fighting for Pebble Mine, a copper and gold mine at the headwaters of the Kvicchak and Nushagak Rivers, the two largest sockeye salmon runs on the planet.

This weekend I saw a preview for Funny People starring Adam Sandler. The synopsis:

When seasoned comedian George Simmons learns of his terminal, inoperable health condition, his desire to form a genuine friendship causes him to take a relatively green performer under his wing as his opening act.

Ever since Adam Sandler had kids, he has made some really touching and deeply moving films like Reign Over Me and Click. Funny People looks like it could be pretty good too and have a unique combination of humor while also asking the BIG questions about life and death…The trailer is below.
