Movie Info

There are two sides of every story and then there is the truth. FrackNation is the film that will tell the truth about fracking. People across the US told us that everything we had heard about fracking was wrong. They say that anti-fracking campaigns, one-sided media coverage and moratoriums and bans have damaged the lives of thousands of people who are now desperate to have their voices heard.

A one-sided attack piece like "FrackNation" doesn't add much to the conversation.

More than anything, "FrackNation" underscores the sheer complexity of a process that offers a financial lifeline to struggling farmers.

The accuracy of this crowd-sourced documentary - funded by small donations on Kickstarter - seems as reliable as a Wikipedia entry.

FrackNation starts from a bogus and willfully cordoned off point-of-view, and exhibits a desire to grind axes more than uncover truth.

Its strongest and most interesting case against Gasland is not so much with refute of its claims as with address of its impact and what this says about modern journalism.

Audience Reviews for FrackNation

The movie lacks of sources to back up his claims. If Gasland is a bias as he states on his film, then this film is just as inaccurate. It is as informative and reliable as a Wikipedia entry.

This is the other side of this issue . I like how the famers and land owners told their story .
