The International Institute for Environment and Development is promoting a documentary that it says "provides a revealing insight into the way international diplomacy can become an intricate game" that potentially threatens millions of the world's poorest people.
The subject is last December's controversial climate change negotiations in Copenhagen, and the film, The Climate Game and the World's Poor, follows delegates from some of the most climate-vulnerable countries as efforts to reach a global climate began to collapse.
"Featuring interviews with senior negotiators and other climate-change experts, the documentary tells the story of what happened when the critical talks began to unravel thanks to leaked texts, broken trust, blocking tactics and secret meetings that excluded many nations," IIED notes.
Any lessons to be learned before the upcoming talks in Cancun? Take a look.
