Social Action Film Series Double-Feature:Challenges and Solutions- Century of the Self (pt 2) + In Transition 2.0

Lincroft- On Sunday, September 16 at 6 pm, in our first-ever double-feature (each film is an hour, we will start with part two of Century of the Self, which explores the roots and methods of consumerism and representative democracy.. The foundation of this documentary is the idea that public relations and politicians have used the theories of Sigmund Freud to engineer a society of consent. In Transition 2.0 surveys the world-wide grassroots reaction to the effects of consumerism-namely, climate change and dwindling fossil fuel supplies-with efforts toward localizing food, energy and other human needs, as well as addressing the psychology of change. The transition movement is taking root in Monmouth county and some of the people involved will be present afterwards for discussion. Screening is free and open to the public. Light refreshments served. 1475 W. Front Street, Lincroft (Unitarian meetinghouse, uucmc.org
