Documents the devastating effect that oil and natural gas drilling is having on the health of families and the environment in the Rocky Mountain West. Imagine discovering that you don't own the mineral rights under your land, and that an energy company plans to drill for natural gas two hundred feet from your front door. Imagine another shocking truth: you have little or no recourse to protect your home or land from such development. Split Estate maps a tragedy in the making, as citizens in the path of a new drilling boom in the Rocky Mountain West struggle against the erosion of their civil liberties, their communities and their health. Directed by Debra Anderson. Produced by Red Rock Pictures.
