Afraid of the Dark

"AFRAID OF THE DARK" Thursday, May 21, 7pm  Marquee Theater, Union South, 1308 W. Dayton St.  Afraid of the Dark takes us to the places few of us want to go and raises questions most of us would rather not ponder about anthropogenic climate disruption. Not just what it is and what it will do to the planet, but why humans are seemingly incapable of doing anything to reverse the train-wreck that’s well on its way with few signs of turning back. Filmed on Location in Italy, Germany, Norway, Canada, France, Scotland, England and the US.
