Award-winning actor and producer Mark Ruffalo joined The Washington Post Live on Nov. 19 for a conversation about his forthcoming film, Dark Waters. Inspired by true events, the film tells the story of an unexpected crusader Rob Bilott, a corporate defense attorney and New College of Florida alumni, who discovers a community has been dangerously exposed for decades to deadly chemicals after following a trail of secrets implicating one of the world’s largest corporations.
Bilott joined Ruffalo, as well as community organizer Emily Donovan, to discuss the film and their campaign to spread awareness about the ongoing dangers of chemical contamination in areas throughout the country.
