Crude (trailer)

Three years in the making, this riveting new documentary from acclaimed filmmaker Joe Berlinger tells the epic story of one of the largest and most controversial legal cases on the planet.

Rarely have such conflicts been examined with the depth and power of Joe Berlinger‚s documentary Crude. These real characters and events play out on the screen like a sprawling legal thriller
