- Documentary Art Film about the FSA
- The artist Anne Rinn was inspired by the FSA and initiated the art project „Keep your boots muddy“, which comprised drawings on the wall, a documentary art film and space installations. The works were shown in the exhibition hall of the German Federal Environment Agency in Berlin (Bismarkplatz) from November 2010 to January 2011. A short version of the film can be seen here.
