Closer to the ground

'Local Hero' packs a powerful punch against the unstable, power-robbing way of living that we have all allowed ourselves to slip into. The oil cartels have a vested interest in our off-the-ground, petroholic way of life continuing with the underlying assumption that more is better, regardless of the cost to the environment or indeed local social networks. On a minimal budget, this film tells a story of resistance to oil company muscle and seduction. The carer of a local scottish beach shares an interest in the stars with the president of the oil company prospecting the site for a new refinery. Their connection helps the president to remember something in himself more lasting and precious than oil or gas or money. Instead, the dream emerges for a biological research centre - something much dearer to the president's heart. Right now, when global financial and political systems are facing meltdown, the messages this film puts out were never more pertinent : Follow your heart, take back your power and wake up to the mega control game that we are in the process of freeing ourselves from.
