“Strength of the Storm” Screening & Discussion

As part of Climate Strike Week, the Windham Organizing Committee of Vermont Workers Center and Extinction Rebellion Southern Vermont are hosting a screening and discussion of the film Strength of the Storm (2013, directed by Rob Koier, USA, 43 min).

This film shows Vermonters who were directly impacted by climate change during the flooding from Tropical Storm Irene, as they realized that we’re all in this together, and organized after the destruction of much of their mobile home community. The film will be followed by a discussion.

“Strength of the Storm” is an extremely powerful film that highlights the devastating impact that global climate change has had on the lives of Vermonters. Rob Koier’s documentary helps us all see and feel how the impact of our addiction to fossil fuels challenges life as we know it in an intimate and compelling manner. Let’s hope this important work inspires meaningful change.” – Jeffrey Hollender, Author, Activist, and Co-Founder of Seventh Generation.
