Gaslit (2026)

8.0/10 111 min Documentary

Overview

In GASLIT, award-winning actor and activist Jane Fonda embarks on a road trip through Texas oil fields and Gulf Coast communities, meeting the people who are fighting back against the oil and gas extraction boom. This boom, which has led to the United States becoming the world’s biggest liquified natural gas (LNG) exporter, is also fueling a massive expansion of plastics production, as fossil fuel companies double down on petrochemicals to secure their future. These are the stories of the shrimpers, cattle ranchers, former oil workers, families, members of faith communities, community organizers, self-described “reluctant activists”, and people across political and cultural spectrums who have come together in defense of the communities and coastlines they love. Join Fonda as she travels across Texas and Louisiana bearing witness to the decades-long struggle between fossil fuel profiteering and the lives of everyday people.
