Surviving Progress

As part of the Long Play program, ACMI are presenting the Australian premiere of Surviving Progress; a documentary set out to try and answer the question “How can we live within the real limits that our planet gives us?” From the creators of The Corporation and Executive Produced by Martin Scorsese, Surviving Progress was inspired by Ronald Wright’s best-selling book A Short History of Progress, and features the ideas of modern luminaries including geneticist David Suzuki, physicist Stephen Hawking, and former Chief Economist of the International Monetary Fund Simon Johnson, and documenting a variety of thoughts deriving from a plethora of backgrounds. We have double passes to give away. How do you plan to survive the future? Time machine?
