Re: [Killietalk] Darwin's Nightmare



There seemed to be a problem with my last reply.
  
Darwin's Nightmare is in theatrical release and will be available on DVD probably after the run.  French and German releases are either complete or scheduled.  To get current information and get on a mail list for advance information about the DVD release, go to http://www.hubertsauper.com/contact.htm

Subject: [Killietalk] O/T seeking information on film "Darwin's
    Nightmare"
To: killietalk at aka_org

"Darwin's Nightmare" is an Oscar-nominated documentary film by the Austrian 
filmmaker Hubert Sauper. It 
deals with the introduction of Nile Perch into Lake Victoria (arguably one of 
the great ecological tragedies of 
the 20th century) and its ecological, economic and political consequences. It 
is reviewed, quite favorably, in 
the 6 March, 2006 issue of The New Yorker.

I am trying to get a video or DVD version of this film for teaching purposes. 
Does anyone know if these are 
available, their sources, etc?  I have information that dvd releases are 
planned, but I don't know how 
current this might be.

Thanks, Bruce Turner, fishgen at vt_edu
