Just watched this one. BBC production. Multiple points of view. Explains why neolib/con (whatever you want to call it) is a dead end for all of us, globally.
Thanks for prodding, Jore. There is so much in this one that anyone who votes needs to understand. The two main parties in Australia are asking the exact wrong questions and we are letting them. Climate change is just one part of the problem, more a symptom than a problem, or a result. And I love the ending of the film. Tears.

Sooner or later, I hate to break it to you, you're gonna die, so how do you fill in the space between here and there? It's yours. Seize your space.
