Members of the Nor’Wester Mountain Escarpment Protection Committee are presenting an American-made documentary at the Community Auditorium Thursday night.
The film, titled Windfall, focuses on a wind farm development in upstate New York. The farm owners there had agreed to lease land to the turbine developer in order to supplement their incomes during tough times.
Escarpment committee member Susan Bukovy said the movie is a real eye-opener, and shows what can happen when a large wind company moves into a small community.
Filmmaker Laura Isreal will be available via Skype to answer questions from the audience following the screening.
The film starts at 7 p.m. at the Community Auditorium.
