Event Details

Discussion panel: Jenny Pickerill, Vanessa Sloan Morgan, Adam Barker, Peter Kilroy.

Join Passengerfilms, the car-crash of cinema and geography, in our screening of HERITAGE FIGHT (2012). The event pairs film and discussion in an exploration of protest, conservation and environmental values. Directed by Eugénie Dumont, HERITAGE FIGHT follows the citizens and traditional owners (the Goolarabooloo) of lands in a small town in Australia's last great wilderness. The film documents their daily struggle against the imminent danger of a liquified natural gas plant. HERITAGE FIGHT questions and listens. It draws on the perspectives of scientists, activists, politicians and businessmen, all determined to fight and protect what is priceless to them and all driven by a remarkable collective consciousness. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion/ Q&A featuring Prof. Jenny Pickerill (Sheffield), Vanessa Sloan Morgan (Queen's University, Canada), Dr. Adam Barker (Leicester) and Dr. Peter Kilroy (King's College London).

Time: 6.30pm - 10pm

Price: £5.00 (Limited tickets on the door)
