SUMMARY:Power Station
DESCRIPTION:Power Station \nDirected by Dan Edelstyn & Hilary Powell\, UK\,  2025\, BBFC:12A\, Duration 1hr 26min\, Language: English  \nFriday 27th March 2026 at 7pm to 9.30 pm at The Wynd Centre\, 6 School Wynd\, Paisley\, PA12DB\nInspired by lockdown mutual aid initiatives\, artist-activists Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn decided to turn their street into an energy-generating powerhouse – a prototype for a new way of living\, with the hope of galvanising a wider push towards sustainable alternatives. Directed by the duo\, POWER STATION charts their turbulent journey\, from pitching the idea to their neighbours and sleeping on the roof of their home to raising finance and launching a bid for a Christmas number one single. By turns funny and heartwarming\, Powell and Edelstyn’s film is a vibrant portrait of their local neighbourhood and a charming testament to the power of art in changing minds about what could be possible. \nFollowing the screening there will be a talk and discussion event with artist and activist Ellie Harrison of Glasgow Community Energy. \nTickets for this event are available from Eventbrite\, presented at a sliding scale between £0 and £8 so that you can pay what you can. \nPower Station Film Screening Tickets\, Friday\, Mar 27 from 7 pm to 10 pm | Eventbrite
