"Windfall" at the Little Art, Saturday

The Little Art Theatre is proud to announce a local screening of "Windfall" as part of its new film series devoted to the issues, stories, and environmental challenges we, and our planet, face. Beginning last month, The Environmental Film Series, will showcase Windfall (83 min.), Saturday April 7 at 4 PM. Directed by Laura Israel, this film speaks to the myth that wind power is the cure for our planet’s energy woes.

Wind power is sustainable, it burns no fossil fuel, it produces no air pollution. What’s more, it cuts down dependency on foreign oil. But there is also a dark side of wind energy development and the potential for highly profitable financial scams. Windfall invites thoughtful discussion rather than agenda driven pronouncements and opens real discussion as to the promise of wind power and its shortcomings.

The film has garnered accolades from film critics across the nation: "CRITIC'S PICK! Urgent, informative and artfully assembled. The film's implications are clear: The quest for energy independence comes with caveats. Energy companies remain eager to plunder nature's bounty in pursuit of profit." - Andrew Webster, The New York Times.

The Little Art offers a full concession bar, wine and beer. Please visit the Special Events tab on our website at littleart.com and join us for our new series.
