The description seems more like pushing a vegan perspective. I don't know if that's a good way to get started. Nonetheless, I wish your endeavor the best!
Clickspring is currently recreating the antikythera mechanism using period accurate tools and technology, which is low tech if you consider that it was high tech for the ancient greeks.
@Julian_1_2_3_4_5 I would be careful with calling it #solarpunk , the movie has a lot of implicit neoliberal assumptions and puts a lot of technosolutionist proposals, doesn't show a lot of communities.
It's a great introduction to the idea of not giving up though! I personally recommend the movie to people who have had no experience with hopeful climate fiction at all.
The company owning the movie is pretty hard to work with as well, we failed to get educational screenings multiple times :/
I'd recommend checking out our local documentary community, !documentaries, which is chock full of docs! :D
Though admittedly, most of the ones there are not directly related to solarpunk. Since the movement is really only just catching on in the mainstream, there's not much documentary/movie content about it.
The only fictional movie I can think of that's solarpunky would be Strange World from (ironically) Disney.
I had a similar observation when watching it, particularly around eco-modernism.
As Giorgos Kallis put it,
"eco-modernism — that is, the idea that all environmental and social problems can ultimately be solved with the application of technology, and that the only solution to the problems of modern technology is more modern technology."
