The Council of Canadians London chapter screened the film ‘This Changes Everything’ at the London Public Library last night to a capacity crowd as part of a Cinema Politica event. The great turnout happened despite the fact that the film had already been playing all week in London.
To date, more than 3,740 people have gone to chapter-organized screenings in Montreal, Saskatoon, Duncan, Elora, Charlottetown, Yellowknife, Prince Albert, Chilliwack, Ladner,Mabou, Windsor, Courtenay, Saint John, St. John’s, Sudbury, Golden, Terrace, Regina,Fredericton, Powell River, Thunder Bay, Hinton, Picton and now London.
The next chapter screening is in Peterborough (Jan. 31).
As noted on the film’s website, “The film presents seven powerful portraits of communities on the front lines, from Montana’s Powder River Basin to the Alberta Tar Sands, from the coast of South India to Beijing and beyond. Interwoven with these stories of struggle is Klein’s narration, connecting the carbon in the air with the economic system that put it there. Throughout the film, Klein builds to her most controversial and exciting idea: that we can seize the existential crisis of climate change to transform our failed economic system into something radically better.”
