THE SEQUEL shines a light on the work and legacy of an amazing man, David Fleming, a historian, economist, and ecologist with a deep understanding of how we got here and a compelling vision of how we can recover what we have lost as the market economy has worked its way into every aspect of our lives. In the film, we encounter extraordinary people and projects from four continents that are cultivating a resilience that doesn't rely on the impossible promise of eternal economic growth: renegade economist Kate Raworth, conservative philosopher Roger Scruton, Gaian ecologist Stephan Harding, eco-pioneer and Forum for the Future cofounder Jonathon Porritt, and many more.
As we discover, all were inspired by a work of rare depth that is rekindling optimism in the creativity and intelligence of humans to nurse our communities and ecology back to health: David Fleming's posthumously published lifework, Lean Logic: A Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It. THE SEQUEL recognizes the fundamental unsustainability of today's society and dares to ask the big question: What will follow?
Not Rated.
