Every 2 1/2 days in the US, a significant oil spill fouls the environment. BROKE documents a break in Plains All-American's pipeline #901 in May 2015. That spill sent 140,000 gallons of crude oil onto the Gaviota coast and into the ocean. Crude oil tumbled in the surf, sent toxic fumes into the air, and killed sea life as the Coast Guard mobilized to respond. The film highlights the reaction of citizens who came together in protest marches and healing ceremonies, rescued birds and marine mammals, cleaned the oil off the beaches, and demanded more stringent spill prevention and response. The community's actions stands in stark contrast to the insensitivity of the oil industry. Plains All-American Pipeline, Ltd. still faces both criminal and civil lawsuits.
