CHICAGO-AREA PREMIERE. FILM DESCRIPTION: Produced in-part by award-winning actor Mark Ruffalo, “Invisible Hand: Rights of Nature Documentary” takes you behind the curtain of the global economy where ‘Rights of Nature’ becomes “capitalism’s one true opponent.”

People in Toledo, Ohio, vote to grant Lake Erie the right to exist while others in Grant Township, Pennsylvania, protect groundwater from industrial waste. They, along with Defend Oh:yo’ and Standing Rock, are joined in an international fight to protect more than just water. They fight for their community, democracy, and for Nature as a living entity unto itself. In the end, "Who will speak for Nature?"
