There are a number of documentaries relevant to Transition issues. These can be a great way of triggering debate. We have a library of DVDs which we can lend to groups interested in organising a showing.

We strongly recommend that you discuss any programme of films with us so we can help you plan what you will show and when. Some of the films can be a little over-whelming and it helps to include a discussion of the issues with any showing.

We can provide projection equipment if necessary but in this case we ask for a £25 donation as one us will have to attend.
