Earth Day Broadcast of INHERITANCE: A FISHERMAN'S STORY (A Film by Peter Hegedus) Broadcast Tonight (April 22) on The Sundance Channel Through the story of a Hungarian fisherman whose livelihood is destroyed by an environmental disaster caused by a foreign-owned mining operation, INHERITANCE: A FISHERMAN'S STORY addresses one of the key issues involved in the globalization debate: the regulation of multinational corporations that operate in the developing world. When a dam burst at a Romanian goldmine in early 2000, more than 100,000 tons of cyanide was released into the Tisza River, destroying its ecosystem as well as the livelihoods of subsistence fishermen in neighboring Hungary. INHERITANCE follows fisherman Balazs Meszaros as he struggles with the effects of the disaster on his community, his own work and personal life, and attempts to discover the corporate forces behind the mining operation ** Spirit of Activism Award, 2005 Wild & Scenic Environmental Film Festival ** Best Environmental Film, 2004 Portland International Nature & Environmental Film Festival ** Best Documentary Award, 2004 Real Life on Film Festival ** Excellence in Documentary Filmmaking Award, Australian Center of the Moving Image (2004) ** Special Jury Award, 2003 International Scientific Festival ** First Prize Award, 2003 Global Peace Film Festival ** Best Young Documentarian, Hungarian Film Critics Association (2003) 52 minutes or 75 minutes / color Film Site www.frif.com/new2004/inh.html Local Schedule: See Sundance Channel Site: www.sundancechannel.com <http://www.sundancechannel.com/> Dylan M.
