Join us to experience an exciting virtual film series brought to you by <a href="https://www.redfordcenter.org/" target="_blank" class="ql-size-large">The Redford Center</a>, a leading US nonprofit dedicated to environmental impact filmmaking. We are proud to present a special Redford Center Films That Move experience – a free screening series that is packed with inspiring content to move you and your community into action.

After Superstorm Sandy, global developers purchase Industry City - 16 industrial buildings along the coast of Sunset Park, Brooklyn. They rebrand it an “Innovation District” and lure a new demographic to this working class, largely immigrant community. But many residents have their own plan: a “green re-industrialization” that could address climate change. When Industry City’s owner tries to change land-use rules, a battle erupts over the fate of Brooklyn’s last working waterfront and over who has a right to determine the future of New York City. This observational film sheds light on power and process, illuminates systems and lets viewers into the public and private spaces where change happens. Through an ensemble of participants, it explores the profound intersections of gentrification, climate change and development. It asks how change might emerge from dialogue and collective action in a world where too many outcomes are constrained by money, politics and business as usual. About The Filmmakers﻿Kelly Anderson is a Sunset Park based documentary filmmaker whose most recent film is Rabble Rousers: Frances Goldin and the Fight for Cooper Square (w.

Kelly produced and directed Every Mother’s Son (PBS, 2004, w. Tami Gold), about mothers whose children were killed by police, which won the Tribeca Audience Award and aired on POV. She produced and directed Out At Work (HBO, 2000, w. Tami Gold), which premiered at Sundance. Kelly chairs the Department of Film and Media Studies at Hunter College (CUNY).
