The Island President | Free PBS “Independent Lens” Documentary Film Night | Berkeley

In The Island President by Jon Shenk, Bonni Cohen and Richard Berge, Maldives President Mohamed Nasheed is confronting a problem greater than any world leader has ever faced — the literal survival of his country and everyone in it.

His is the most low-lying country in the world; a minor rise in sea level would literally erase it from the map.
