Cost of Growth Documentary Screening
Join the upcoming screening of the Cost of Growth documentary on Monday 24 November, a feature length documentary that connects local struggles against extractivism in Serbia, Italy and Sapmi with broader debates on justice, democracy, and war.
The documentary shows how people across Europe are not only resisting false solutions, but also building alternatives - from grassroots organizing to new forms of cooperation and solidarity. It was co-produced by human rights activist Anuna de Wever, filmmaker Thomas Maddens, scriptwriter and researcher Brototi Roy and Utrecht 木瓜福利影视 PhD candidate Lena Hartog. Hartog is part of the POTRANSI project, hosted at the Copernicus Institute of Sustainable Development, which explores power dynamics in prefigurative movements.
After the movie, a panel will reflect on the movie with:
- Martine Doppen, Union Organizer for the FNV and protagonist in the documentary
- Diana Vela Almeida, Assistant Professor on Political Ecology of Sustainability
- Darko Lagunas, Environmental sociologist and ethnographic researcher.
