A film documenting fracking and the young Aboriginal lawyer whose community is affected by it will be screened Wednesday night at the Evergreen Cultural Centre in Coquitlam.
Independent advocacy group Lead Now is showing the film Fractured Land, which has been popular on the documentary film festival circuit.
Filmmakers Fiona Rayher and Damien Gillis followed Caleb Behn for four years, capturing hundreds of hours of footage of his development, through law school, sharing knowledge with other Indigenous peoples, speaking to larger and larger audiences, dealing with deep community divisions and building a movement.
Behn and 350.org founder Bill McKibben will be on hand for a Q&A after the screening.
Tickets for Fractured Land cost $12 for adults ($9 per person for a group of eight or more when purchased together). Tickets are available at evergreenculturalcentre.ca. The doors open at 6:30 p.m., the show begins at 7 p.m. The Evergreen Cultural Centre is located at 1205 Pinetree Way, Coquitlam.
