Curator and director Emily Munro has been searching for the roots of the climate crisis in our history. In her film, archive footage evocatively portrays a country shaped by demands for energy and economic growth, while a dramatic soundtrack amplifies the voices of the past.
The film looks at Scotland’s post-war history through the lens of current debate, inviting audiences on a journey to revisit the promises of the past and how they relate to our future on this planet. Was climate change inevitable? Can we break free from a boom-and-bust mentality? Are we able to adapt to ensure a healthy and sustainable future for generations to come?
