  • Finite: The Climate of Change and Live Director QandA
    The film is a cinematic, timely insider's view of the world of direct action; a raw, authentic and emotional insight into the David and Goliath battle between frontline communities, activists and fossil fuel corporations. Concerned citizens in Germany put their bodies on the line to save an ancient forest from one of Europe's largest coal mines. A secretive community of dedicated activists head for a final showdown with Europe's biggest CO2 emitter, energy giant RWE and the police to decide whether the forest is wiped off the map forever. Finite lays bare what the green leaders of the world are really doing to our natural environment but also how collective action can turn the tide against all odds. The documentary will be hosted by South Lakes Action on Climate Change Towards Transition, at Brewery Arts, featuring a live Q&A with Director Rich Felton.
