The film festival continues with the June 20th Sunday session presenting a movie marathon of almost epic proportions.
The film that put Climate Change front and centre, An Inconvenient Truth, will be shown mid afternoon, if you’ve never seen it, now’s a good time. It provides a lot of really interesting information, some memorable graphs and a personal insight into what drives some people to take on the world.
In Transition -the movie starts the session and provides a good summary of what various localities are doing around the world to reconnect their communities so that they could survive with as least impact as possible should Peak Oil deliver the ‘shock to the system’ that was experienced in Cuba during ‘the special period ‘ of the 70’s when their oil supplies were stopped almost overnight.
The Power of Community wraps up the afternoon and goes in to some detail about how Cuba’s economy and social structure shifted to sustain the population by setting up local organic agriculture close to the population and developing alternative transport systems to move the masses.
The films will run to the outlined programme so if you want to come to a specific film you can be assured of its start and end time.
In between the movies there is time to chat and get a cuppa and get acquainted.
