Zeeshan Aleem: A controversial new film is raising the question of whether extreme measures are acceptable to call attention to climate change – and it's dividing people on both sides of the aisle.
Did you talk to Malm about the movie, and how did you aim to be true to a book that was of a fundamentally different genre, in that the book was nonfiction and the film was fiction?Our approach is very much predicated on this idea that stories are just ideas structured into narrative and that there is a political identity at the heart of any story. That’s just the nature of the beast.
You’re not just illustrating Andreas’ point by showing the different kinds of things that radicalized people, but also you’re giving audiences a firsthand experience of the different kinds of lives that have been destroyed by the fossil fuel industry. We very much presented that to Andreas, that this is going to be a movie that is going to be dramatizing his ideas but that it’s also going to be pushing back on them more.
There is a widespread understanding that if somebody is holding a gun at you with an intent to kill you, you have a right to take that gun away and disassemble it. ... The fossil fuel industry has a gun to the head of the world.I think that the movie takes the position that these eight characters see this as an act of self-defense. And I think that there’s a difference between the position the movie is taking and what the movie hopes to provoke as a conversation.
