Keswick Film Club

Don't forget on 7th June, at 2pm, SusKes are presenting a free showing The Power of Community - How Cuba Survived Peak Oil. One IMDb commentator summarised it thus:

"See this film, pass it on to your politician! This is a positive film and I found it utterly refreshing after the barrage of doom-laden messages about the state of the world today."

Followed by a chance to discuss and learn more...

We’ve become involved in helping SusKes to spread their message of sustainability and awareness of environmental issues by helping to screen two upcoming films at the Alhambra – the first, this Sunday (31st) at 2pm, is The Age of Stupid which is described on the IMDb as:

"This ambitious documentary/drama/animation hybrid stars Pete Postlethwaite as an archivist in the devastated world of the future, asking the question: "Why didn't we stop climate change when we still had the chance?"

The really good news: it’s free of charge! And it’ll be followed by a talk and discussion for those who want to stay

Then on 7th June, also at 2pm, SusKes are showing (free entry again) The Power of Community - How Cuba Survived Peak Oil. One IMDb commentator summarised it thus:

"See this film, pass it on to your politician! This is a positive film and I found it utterly refreshing after the barrage of doom-laden messages about the state of the world today."

Again followed by a chance to discuss and learn more…

Thanks to Robert and Tom for agreeing to project these films, and to Alhambra owner Alan Towers for letting us use the cinema.
