On Wednesday November 16th at 8pm, FVSA and REACT to FILM are having a screening of the documentary THE LAST MOUNTAIN, which will be held in MLB Auditorium 1. In addition to this free screening, there will be a Live Stream Q&A with the director following the screening. Below is a synopsis of the film:
The fight for the last great mountain in Americaí¢â‚¬â„¢s heartland pits a mining giant that wants to explode it for its coal against local families fighting to preserve their mountain, their heritage and their futures. The mining and burning of coal is at the epicenter of Americaí¢â‚¬â„¢s struggle to balance its energy needs and environmental concerns, so the daring solution proposed by this small Appalachian community takes on national significance when Bobby Kennedy Jr. joins the Appalachian families to fight the extraordinary and insidious power of Big Coal. A passionate and personal tale that highlights the extraordinary power of ordinary Americans when they fight for what they believe in, THE LAST MOUNTAIN showcases a battle for the future of energy that affects us all.
