Event Description

international premier of the documentry film

DUST The Great Asbestos Trial

by Niccolò Bruna - Andrea Prandstraller
Italy, Belgium, Switzerland – 2011, HD, 85’

an interview with prosecutor Guariniello by journalist Papuzzi will follow the screening

 

With the increasing use of asbestos in China, Russia and other countries, asbestos production has grown apace, so that 70% of the world population is now exposed to this carcinogenic material. Starting from the first court hearings in Turin involving the multinational Eternit, which now faces claims of having caused the death of nearly 30,000 former plant workers and among the local populace at Casale Monferrato, the film takes us to India and Brazil on an exploration into a multimillion dollar business managed by a lobby that holds sway over the policies of many countries.

We hope to be able to present soon this piece of true work in Belgium, sadely, the heart of the abestos lobby.
The first civil trial against Eternit will take place in Bruxelles on 24 Octobre 2011. A perfect time to present this documentary and wake some consciences up.
