We’re bringing the award winning FINITE: The Climate of Change to a cinemas near you!
FINITE: The Climate of Change, features the Campaign to Protect Pont Valley in England and the occupation of the Hambacher forest in Germany. It reveals the relentless campaigning, direct action and creative protest, concerned people took to stop further destruction in both locations. The film shows scenes similar those of the 35,000 people taking action against RWE’s destruction of the village of Lützerath, Germany, earlier this year.
We're holding question and answer sessions on how you can get involved in current anti-coal battles after each of the screenings listed below.
The film is not yet available online, so head down to one of our events in the next couple of months to watch it with us. Bookings not necessary unless noted below, just come on the day.
