'A Convenient Truth': a film about the world getting better


Shot in late 2006, after watching Al Gore’s “An Inconvenient Truth”, Jack Guest from Woodmancote who helped set up the West Gloucestershire Green party was inspired to find a “A Convenient Truth” about climate change.

 

Jack Guest invested his life savings and took a film crew by boat to Sweden - a country aiming to break its dependency on oil by 2020. There he met a full range of people, from politicians and scientists, to families and entrepreneurs. His feature length preview tells the story of his journey to Sweden. In December of the same year Jack continued his journey, crossing the Atlantic by cargo ship in search of love, a low carbon footprint, and time to enjoy the ride. Things didn’t go exactly according to plan.

 

Jack Guest has just released a preview of the film online which includes shots of Woodmancote. He said:  "The film has a light hearted tone and a positive message that things can get better and that change does not have to mean sacrifice."


Jack Guest added: "There are some amazing people in Gloucestershire willing to do something about climate change."

The film is heading for release in early 2008. Details of new film here:
