Synopsis
How did a small anti-nuclear pressure group founded in Vancouver in 1971 become the world biggest environmental organization? Forty years ago, few were interested in the environment. To get itself heard, Greenpeace adopted an unusual approach and developed a method of direct action, raising awareness about issues that hitherto had remained hidden. Thanks to archive footage and interviews with early Greenpeace members, L’Aventure Greenpeace retraces the struggles of one of the most spectacular sagas in recent history.
