The Knott County chapter of Kentuckians For The Commonwealth introduces a new film series, Movie Night for the Commonwealth. The chapter will show a new movie related to issues that impact eastern Kentuckians on the second Thursday of every month at 6:30 p.m. at the Hindman Settlement School. The event is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served and a short, optional discussion will follow for anyone interested in talking about the movies.
The first movie will be shown this Thursday, January 8, at 6:30 p.m. at the Hindman Settlement School. In this month's film, "Kilowatt Ours," filmmaker Jeff Barrie offers hope as he turns the camera on himself and asks, "How can I make a difference?†In his journey Barrie explores the source of our electricity and the problems caused by it. Along the way he encounters those who are leading the way, using energy conservation, efficiency and renewable, green power all while saving money and the environment. More information and clips from the movie can be found at: www.kilowattours.org
The February 12 movie will be "Sicko," a documentary that takes a close look at the U.S. health care system, and the March 12 movie will be "Democracy's Ghosts," an exploration of voter disenfranchisement.
