Power Station Screening and Q&A

Join us at Liskeard Library for a free screening and Q&A of POWER STATION.

Watch the trailer here and read the synopsis below:

Two artists in Walthamstow set out to take their street off the grid,

kickstarting a solar-powered energy revolution.

Inspired by lockdown mutual aid initiatives, artist-activists Hilary Powell and Dan

Edelstyn decided to turn their street into an energy-generating powerhouse – a

prototype for a new way of living, with the hope of galvanising a wider push

towards sustainable alternatives.

Directed by the duo, POWER STATION charts their turbulent journey, from pitching

the idea to their neighbours and sleeping on the roof of their home, to raising

finance and launching a bid for a Christmas number one single.

By turns funny and heartwarming, Powell and Edelstyn’s film is a vibrant portrait of

their local neighbourhood, and a charming testament to the power of art in

changing minds about what could be possible.

Please note under 16's must be accompanied by an adult.
