The Age of Stupid

The Age of Stupid, from director Franny Armstrong (McLibel), and Kiwi
Producer Lizzie Gillett, stars Pete Postlethwaite as a man living alone
in the devastated world of 2055, looking back at news footage and
asking: why didn't we stop climate change when we had the chance?
It's a must see.
Following the extraordinary success of the UK People's Premiere, The
Age of Stupid will be launched simultaneously in Australia and New
Zealand at the biggest - and greenest - live film event the two
countries have ever seen.
On Weds 19th August, celebrities will arrive at both the Sydney Theatre
and at a specially-constructed solar powered tent in downtown Auckland.
The Auckland event is being hosted by Oxfam and Greenpeace. The
celebrities, who'll include Sign On ambassadors Lucy Lawless and
Keisha Castle-Hughes, will brave the cameras on the green carpet before
being welcomed by MC Oliver Driver.
Following the screening of the film, there'll be a live link up with
the Sydney event, before a Q and A with producer Lizzie Gillett, chaired
by broadcaster Noelle McCarthy.
Meanwhile, across town, the film will open in all Hoyts cinemas. So
there's no excuse for missing it! See below for screening times.
