Film Night: The Oil Machine

Monday 20 February 2023: ‘The Oil Machine’ – Can we break our addiction?’ – Film Night at 7.30pm in the HUB in the Moor Room at the Old School Community Centre. A documentary film – Oil has been an invisible machine at the core of our economy and society. It now faces an uncertain future as activists and investors demand change. Is this the end of oil?

By highlighting the complexities of how oil is embedded in our society – from high finance to cheap consumer goods – The Oil Machine brings together a wide range of voices from oil company executives, economists, young activists, workers, scientists, and pension fund managers. It considers how this machine can be tamed, dismantled, or repurposed.

The film will be followed by a chance for discussion.
