FILM: No Impact You, Thurs 13th January 7pm BMI

Another great offering from Just Film, showing at Midlands Co-operative Member Relations Centre at the Birmingham & Midland Institute, 9 Margaret Street, Birmingham, B3 3BS.

Colin Beavan decides to completely eliminate his personal impact on the environment for the next year – eating vegetarian, buying only local food, and turning off the fridge. No lifts, no TV, no cars, busses, or airplanes, no toxic cleaning products, no electricity, no material consumption, and no rubbish (would be handy in Brum).

But he and his family live in Manhattan. So when his espresso-guzzling, retail-worshipping wife Michelle and their two-year-old daughter are dragged into the fray, the No Impact Project has an unforeseen impact of its own.

Laura Gabbert and Justin Schein’s film provides an intriguing inside look into the experiment that became a national fascination and media sensation, while examining the familial strains and strengthened bonds that result from Colin and Michelle’s struggle with their radical lifestyle change.
