Taking a similar line to Al Gore's 'An Inconvenient Truth', the premise behind this documentary is that we're all drinking in the last chance saloon. With testimonies from the world's energy experts, the film reaches the conclusion that oil reserves are disappearing fast, and that a crisis of global proportions looms. More worrying however, is the realisation that the major industrial societies have no back-up plan in place to deal with the inevitable shortage, and that unless western society re-invents its relation to energy needs, economic meltdown is inevitable.
