Join us for a special screening of the celebrated Best Documentary Film winner at the César Awards; the French climate change film that’s been inspiring communities everywhere.
Following the publication of a study that announced the possible disappearance of a part of humanity between here and 2100, co-directors Cyril Dion and actress Mélanie Laurent (INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS), set out with a team of four people to carry out an investigation in ten countries in order to understand what could provoke this catastrophe and, above all, how to avoid it. During their journey, they met pioneers who are reinventing agriculture, energy, the economy, democracy, and education. By putting these positive and concrete initiatives, which are already functioning, end to end, the filmmakers began to see emerge what the world of tomorrow could be…
TODAY, we sometimes feel powerless in front of the various crises of our times.
TODAY, we know that answers lie in a wide mobilization of the human race. Over the course of a century, our dream of progress commonly called “the American Dream”, fundamentally changed the way we live and continues to inspire many developing countries. We are now aware of the setbacks and limits of such development policies. We urgently need to focus our efforts on changing our dreams before something irreversible happens to our planet.
TODAY, we need a new direction, objective… A new dream! The documentary TOMORROW (‘Demain’) sets out to showcase alternative and creative ways of viewing agriculture, economics, energy and education. It offers constructive solutions to act on a local level to make a difference on a global level. So far, no other documentary has gone down such an optimistic road… TOMORROW is not just a film, it is the beginning of a movement seeking to encourage local communities around the world to change the way they live for the sake of our planet.
Screening in collaboration with Transition Falmouth.

WEDNESDAY, 10th MAY sees the launch of a new Car Club at the
DELL CAR PARK, Falmouth at 2.30 p.m.
N.B. Launch of CoCars in TRURO is two hours EARLIER at Truro Railway Station at 12:30pm
Organised by Co-Cars – a social enterprise based in Exeter – the Club is starting off with one car based in Falmouth and two in Truro. See https://www.co-cars.co.uk
(note that Co-Cars also offer on-street electric bike hire in Exeter… this service, plus having another car at the Quarry-end of Falmouth would have the support of the TF Core Group if these additional services were able to be made available in the future)
In the meantime, TF is helping to promote this initiative, but we do need some help. Come along on Wednesday to find out more
The launch at the Dell will be attended by the Operations Manager and other representatives of Co-Cars, and by members of Transition Truro some of whom have put a lot of work helping to make this initiative a reality.

Instead of the usual Transition Falmouth and Falmouth LETS meetings at the Captain’s Table in the Greenbank Hotel, there’s a slight change of format and venue this month.
For the July gathering on Wednesday 26th July, at the slightly later time of 7:30pm, we will be having a “green drinks” event in the Working Boat which is tucked away on the quay at the Greenbank Hotel.
