NYC PREMIERE As we face the climate crisis, the filmmakers look back to a hopeful period when leading scientists, government officials, heads of international conglomerates and, most importantly, the American people agreed there was a problem at hand. Spanning the presidential administrations of Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, and George H.W. Bush, the film uses archival material to reveal how our shared understanding of humanity’s effect on the climate tragically became a partisan issue. – Brandon Harrison
