"The Age of Stupid", is an new climate change film starring Oscar-nominated Pete Postlethwaite (In The Name of the Father) as a man living alone in the devasted world of 2055 as he looks back asks: why didn't we stop climate change when we could? Directed by Franny Armstrong (McLibel, Drowned Out) and Oscar-winning Producer John Battsek (One Day In September, In The Shadow of the Moon) this compelling drama-doc explores the social causes and consequences of humans delaying serious action to tackle climate change through a heady mix of human tragedy, corporate greed, bitingly satirical animation and political activism.

The Age of Stupid release presents a unique opportunity to motivate friends, family, colleagues and the people of Hebden Bridge to consider the future and take action locally to fight climate change, say organisers.

The film will be screened on Sunday, May 24 at 4.30 pm and Monday May 25 at 7.45.

There will also be a benefit for the Hebden Bridge Transition group at the Trades Club.
