Plot summary
The Deepwater Horizon blowout leaves a stretch of the Gulf of Mexico coast polluted, and a filmmaker's own hometown is among the places affected. He gathers a team and drives through the hardest hit parts of the coast to see the damage for himself. Along the way they speak with fishermen, scientists, drilling engineers, government officials, environmental researchers and contractors working for BP. The questions they carry are what took place, why it took place, and who came out ahead. Interviews also cover the economic cost of the spill for coastal communities and its effects on residents' health, both immediately and over the years that follow.
