Ramona Africa will be touring the UK to talk about the incredible story of the trials and tribulations of her family – the MOVE Organization.https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/186https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/93In a world driven by profit, humanity seems unwilling to change the course of the fossil fuel economy. In the summer 2006, the hottest year ever recorded in recent history, 600 people convinced that there was no time to waste set up a camp for climate action outside of the Drax coal-fired power station in Yorkshire. It became a space of collective learning, sustainable living and taking direct action on the root causes of climate change. After the film we can discuss the action planned for summer 2007. We have less than 10 years to radically reduce our carbon emissions to avoid catastrophic climate change. The time to act is now. This summer, be part of it. Get involved! https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/93https://www.starandshadow.org.uk/on/film/48Film-making like this is a rare experience. This movie tells of nature as life itself.
