Going Green
Synopsis
Amber and Nigel, seventeen-year-old daughter Liberty, and Amber’s father Michael, live in London. With Amber and Nigel both made redundant, they are no longer able to pay their mortgage. Facing repossession of their house, they decide to give everything up and go north to Scotland on a camping trip to contemplate their future. Liberty and Michael elect to stay behind until things take a turn for the worst, when Liberty sees her boyfriend with an other girl. She goes North with her Grandfather after all, only to discover her parents are living in a 'Green' New Age camp with ex hippies and oddball characters. Both parents get involved in the village anti wind farm campaign as a bid to fit in, whilst also placating the ex army New Age gang they encountered on the road. Liberty is unable to fit in with life at the camp in a tent. She ventures out to meet the locals in the village. Meanwhile grandfather has a heart attack and ends up in hospital. The family is broken and only Amber has the courage to put it together again. A film about loss and renewal. http://www.palmtreefilm.com
