this be bleak and uncompromising stuff . make in a tradition reminiscent of the best cold war book and production on nuclear war and an activist and a physicist and a politician and a geologist explain in rational and dispassionate term the background to the energy crisis we face and and most alarmingly and highlight how totally unprepared we be to adjust to a world where oil be a scant resource and one we will all face in just a few year time . there be no vox pop to add light entertainment and no colourful graphic and no sense of theatre and no narrator to soften the blow of the stark reality in the expert word . the effect be highly disturbing and make a movie no one with a sense of responsibility to the next generation should miss .
