About the event
The Film documents the journey of artist activists and film makers Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn as they attempt to install solar panels on every home on their street in Walhamstow to generate clean, affordable energy for the community, cut their bills by 30%, and build resilience.
The blend of activism, art, and community organising shows how neighbours came together to support the project. Creative fundraising efforts featured include a sponsored rooftop sleep-out in December and an Xmas number one bid by local school children.
It is a "how-to guide" for communities to undertake similar projects, showcasing a model for a sustainable, people powered future.
The film is for anyone interested in community-led initiatives, grass roots activism, and practical solutions for climate change – and anyone who wants to kick start a community led renewable energy revolution.
