The Age of Stupid is the hardest hitting climate change film documentary
to hit cinema screens, directed by Franny Armstrong (McLibel, Drowned
Out) and produced by Oscar-winning producer John Battsek (One Day in
September, In the Shadow of the Moon).

 

Pete Postlethwaite stars as the narrator of the film, an old man living
alone in what is a devastated world of 2055, looking at "archive
footage" from 2008, asking "why didn't we stop climate change when we
had the chance?".

 

Pete's character is the founder of the Global Archive, a storage
facility located in the (now melted) Arctic, dedicated to preserving all
of humanity's achievements in the hope that the planet might one day be
habitable again. The stories Pete's character uses to illustrate the
plight of planet earth when something could have been done, include
those of six individuals across the globe, whose lives have been
affected in some way by climate change. 

 

Produced independently, using the unique method of film financing
through a "crowd funded" budget, The Age of Stupid is a film that hands
the audience a stark dose of reality, forcing us to comprehend the true
enormity of what we are doing to the planet.
