The setting of the film is a riverboat cruise ship floating up the Yangtze river. Two young people are the focus of the film as they work aboard the ship. One is a sixteen-year-old girl from a particularly poor family living on the banks of the Yangtze near Fengdu, named "Cindy" Yu Shui. She is followed as she leaves her family to work on one of the cruise ships serving wealthy western tourists at the same time as her family is being forced from their home due to the flooding that accompanied the building of the dam. The film shows her acclimatization to the consumer economy of tourism as well as modern technology of the cruise ships, juxtaposed with her family and other older citizens who are displaced from a rural lifestyle to cities where they must pay for the vegetables they used to grow on their own., 1h44

Un matin, Josh Fox reçoit une lettre d'une compagnie d'extraction de gaz qui lui propose 100 000 dollars contre le droit d'installer des puits de forage sur les dix hectares du terrain familial, dans la zone non incorporée de Milanville (Pennsylvanie). Méfiant, Fox se renseigne alors sur l'exploitation de la formation rocheuse des schistes de Marcellus qui parcourt la Pennsylvanie, l'État de New York, l'Ohio et la Virginie-Occidentale. Josh Fox visite d'abord Dimock (Pennsylvanie), dans une zone d'exploitation du gaz de schiste. Il y rencontre plusieurs familles dont l'eau du robinet peut prendre feu si l'on en approche un briquet. Les habitants y souffrent également de nombreux problèmes de santé et craignent que leur approvisionnement en eau soit contaminé., 21minutes

The Banqiao Dam in China, with its 492 million cubic meters of water, has a similar capacity to the Mullaperiyar Dam, with 443 million cubic meters. When it was destroyed by torrential rains in 1975, it claimed the lives of 250,000 people. This documentary is based on the possibility of a similar disaster happening to the Mullaperiyar Dam in India., 55minutes

Taken for a Ride begins with interviews on the inefficiencies and congestion on Los Angeles' highways. Next, the film displays a variety of archival footage on streetcar systems around the United States, demonstrating that streetcars were a widespread and efficient means of transportation. The film continues into a description of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy, starting with a history of National City Lines and Pacific City Lines and General Motors' investment in both companies. The film builds the argument that streetcar systems purchased by these companies were deliberately sabotaged through service reductions and fare increases, then replaced with profitable, less convenient, bus systems. Next, the film makes a connection between this conspiracy and the construction of the Interstate Highway System and the suburbanization of America in the face of the Highway revolts in the 1960s and 1970s. The film ends with footage of the reduction of Philadelphia's trolleybus system at the time of filming.
