“FUEL” the Film comes to Chicago

0 Comments Published by Seamus Ford October 5th, 2009 in Electric/Hybid Cars, Peak Oil, Public Transportation, Social Responsibility.

On Friday October 9^th, a new film will have a green carpet premier at Chicago’s Piper’s Alley theater .

The film simply titled “FUEL” was written and directed by Josh Tickell and Rebecca Harrell and has been praised by Robert Redford and won the best documentary audience award at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. FUEL is a comprehensive and entertaining look at energy in America. It looks at how we got on our present crash course with an energy emergency and offers possible solutions.

According to the Los Angeles Times: “Fuel is a vital, superbly assembled documentary…doesn’t dwell on muckraking, however; it’s more focused on broadly inspiring viewers than preaching to the converted….Smartly animated interstitials, memorable archival material and a lively soundtrack round out the fast-paced proceedings.”
