EMotion Pictures Productions, LLC announces the release of its current documentary film Sprawling From Grace; Driven To Madness available for purchase in DVD format.
“At a time when people are looking at alternative energy sources for our current oil dependency, we’re excited to release this film as a way of showcasing the problems created by suburban sprawl,” stated David M. Edwards, producer and director of Sprawling From Grace. “It details the difficulties and dangers we face from an aging transportation infrastructure, and brings attention to the problem of peak oil and how it relates to the current oil crisis.”
This film features former President Bill Clinton; former Governor of Massachusetts Michael Dukakis; author of The Long Emergency, James Howard Kunstler; and Denver Mayor John Hickenlooper. It explores how our nation is responding to the growing concerns of peak oil and the looming oil crises, and investigates the ability of alternative energy to replace petroleum. The film reveals the relationship between transportation and development, and advocates for change in the way in which we build our cities.
“In the future, we will see the reintroduction of public transportation and transit in order to guide sensible, sustainable urban development,” stated Edwards. “We must abandon the strategy of treating the symptoms, and look for a sustainable cure.”
