The Filmmakers Synopsis
The opening scene: three reporters waiting in the desert in the dark of night. They’ve been chosen by aliens to witness and film a news conference. A spaceship arrives. Two aliens are beamed down. They state that if the Earth continues to warm humans will not survive. The Earth must immediately begin to cool. The aliens make several suggestions to reverse global warming.
The aliens ask the reporters to deliver the film footage to network headquarters in New York City for broadcast and make a documentary advocating for their suggestions. The aliens then fly away.
Thus begins their 5 day road trip across mid-America documenting a wide range of climate change issues. Informal conversations about economics, politics, history, spirituality and philosophy are interspersed with official on-site news reports giving viewers a good understanding of our climate change crisis and the obstacles we face.
A subplot - all the solutions will cost a lot of money! Where will the money come from an how will we use it to create a green world?
We don’t have much time to figure this out. “The Filmmakers" is a call to collective action.
Also an eight episode version with more story telling content added.
