UK Green Film Festival: The Green Lie

Director
Werner Boote
Certificate
TBA
Running Time
93 mins

If you’ve ever suspected that all those environmentally conscious green entrepreneurs and socially responsible corporations that we hear so much about are actually no more than cynical, greedy opportunists, this is the must-see documentary for you.

Filmmaker Werner Boote teams up with greenwashing expert Katharina Hartmann to expose the dangerous lie that suggests we can simply consume our way out of environmental crisis. This UK Green Film Festival screening is likely to make uncomfortable viewing for hypocrites and armchair environmentalists alike, but should be an eye-opener for anyone who wants to effect real change rather than simply feeling good about themselves.
