Join Lane Cove Coal and Gas Watch as they host a special screening of the award winning film the Bentley Effect at Lane Cove Library on Monday 4th of September, 6:30 pm.
Filmed over five years, The Bentley Effect documents the highs and lows of the battle to keep a unique part of Australia gasfield-free. This timely story of a community’s heroic stand shows how strategic direct action and peaceful protest from a committed community can overcome industrial might and political short-sightedness. It celebrates the non-violent ‘Eureka Stockade’ of our time and chronicles one of the fastest growing social movements we have ever witnessed.
This is a family friendly event, all are welcome and light refreshments will be provided.
