Free Film Showing - If A Tree Falls - A Story of the Earth Liberation Front

This documentary delves into the radical environmental movement of the late 1990s and early 2000s, focusing on the rise and fall of the Earth Liberation Front (ELF). The film explores the legal, ethical, and strategic dilemmas faced by young activists as well as the government's response, which classified the ELF as a domestic terrorist organization. Multiple perspectives are presented through interviews, archival footage, and news reports, leaving the audience to grapple with the moral complexities of eco-sabotage in the fight for environmental justice.
