The Age of Stupid (2008) dir by Franny Armstrong, UK : English
This film, from director Franny Armstrong (McLibel; Drowned Out) and Oscar®-
winning producer John Battsek, is best described as a hybrid of documentary, drama
and animation. It's set in a devastated, climate-change-ravaged 2055 and asks the
question, "Why didn't they do something when they still could?" Oscar®-nominated
Pete Postlethwaite (In the Name of the Father, The Usual Suspects) stars as an old man
living in 2055 piecing together the story from 'archives' between 1950 and 2008. This
film inspired the just-launched 10:10 climate campaign.
Two shows, at 5:30pm and 7:30pm. Reservations are possible for the
second screening only by contacting brenda@rooneyproductions.com. For more
