When 10 environmental workers travel to the Gulf Coast in August 2010 to plumb the devastation wrought by the Deepwater Horizon spill, they discover that 'oil and water' is just the first of many insoluble contradictions. Between the tarred sands of Grand Isle and the fouled water of the Louisiana bayou, they come to find out that Gulf Coast residents are economically dependent upon the very industry that is wreaking havoc on their environment. In the shadow of the greatest ecological disaster of their time, they are forced to reassess their roles as witness and critic.
