The 11th Hour, is essential viewing. It may not change your life, but it may inspire you to recycle that old slogan-button your folks pinned on their dashikis back in the day: If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.Written and directed by the sisters Leila Conners Petersen and Nadia Conners, and narrated on- and off-camera by Leonardo DiCaprio, "The 11th Hour" attempts to stave off helplessness, and the nihilism that often comes with it after one too many reports on melting ice caps and planet-wide extinctions, mostly by appealing to our reason.
