RisingUP is a 90 minute feature documentary set in the deep South after the world’s largest offshore oil blowout, the BP spill of 2010. It chronicles the efforts of a marginalized population who are fighting to recover health, livelihoods and communities as a result of documented chemical toxicity stemming from the spill clean up. Their needs conflict with institutional needs to maintain the region’s appearance of recovery. It is a struggle between daunting corporate interests and basic human rights.
