Social Justice Film Series Presents: Fracking the System

When: Dec 8, 6:30pm

Where: First Universalist Church in Denver

TICKETS HERE

This is a “work-in-progress” screening because we are still needing to raise a final $10,000 before we can officially release the film to the public. Tickets to this event are free-of-charge but you can make a tax-deductible donation towards the completion of the film here: https://bit.ly/fts-crowdfunding or you can choose to donate when you reserve your ticket.

This film has been a labor of love and grassroots support. Your donations are so important to support local independent film makers bringing you stories that you would never hear from mainstream media since they receive significant revenues from Oil & Gas advertising. Consider your donations as Community Supported Films (CSF) similar to Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) and you can all say you helped bring this film to the people.

Film Synopsis:

When a fracking mega-site gets moved from a White neighborhood to a BIPOC neighborhood, a concerned mother fights to try and stop it. She soon joins the state-wide movement to change the law but the powerful oil and gas industry fights back with lawsuits, racialized harassment, political sabotage, and $50 million. Join the First Universalist Church and Brian Hedden, the producer/director who lives in Boulder, as we watch and discuss this film.
