At 6pm on Sunday 15th March, London's Leicester Square will be hosting the world's first premiere in a solar cinema tent for Dogwoof's newest release, the climate change film, The Age of Stupid.
Oscar Nominee Pete Postlethwaite stars as the narrator of the film and will be joined on the "green" carpet by a glittering array of British talent. Held in a tent in the gardens of the square, the premiere also gives the British public an opportunity to be included in the events on the night. Green carpet arrivals and a post-film Q&A will be beamed around the UK via live satellite link-up to over 70 cinemas including The Eden Project, creating a unique experience and a "People's Premiere".
The Age of Stupid stars Pete Postlethwaite as an old man living alone in what is a devastated world of 2055, looking at "archive footage" from 2008, asking "why didn't we stop climate change when we had the chance?". Directed by Franny Armstrong (McLibel) and produced by Oscar-winning John Battsek (One Day in September), The Age of Stupid is released nationwide on the 20th March 2009.
