By exposing the root causes of the BP Deepwater Horizon Explosion and Oil Spill and what really happened after the news cameras left the Gulf States, this film reveals a vast network of corruption and an outrageous cover up. Uncensored journalists, local people whose health suffered dramatically, and scientists who had not been bought off by BP, describe the cataclysmic effects of the spill. The Big Fix is an unforgettable indictment of a government that allowed corporate profit to triumph over the common good.
