Unlimited is a
documentary about renewable energy and other alternatives to fossil fuels. It
highlights a group of passionate 6th graders who call on adults everywhere to
take action and address global warming. Their voices are supported with those of
global warming and energy experts who discuss promising technologies such as
solar, wind, and tidal power, as well as the issues of transportation and food
sustainability. To demonstrate the here-and-now practicality of these
technologies, the film includes on-site footage of solar panels, wind turbines,
low and zero-emissions vehicles, tidal generators and much more.
In a
time when the serious threat of global warming is only just entering the
public's awareness, Unlimited seeks to educate its audience about
possible solutions to global warming in an effort to spur the adoption of
widespread renewable energy use. OneLight OneCamera Productions hopes to bring
Unlimited to classrooms, community centers, and churches around the
country.

REVIEWS:
"To defuse the global warming time bomb, we must phase out coal use rapidly
and find alternatives to other fossil fuels. Unlimited is an indispensable
introduction to the clean energy sources we need." - James Hansen, Climate Scientist, NASA
"As the planet cries out for protection against the assault from our burning
of coal and oil, this vibrant film shows that the greatest source of planetary
renewal - and of our own human hope - is the renewable energy of our kids."
- Ross Gelbspan, author, "The Heat is On" and "Boiling
Point"
"Here's a message coming from the people who are going to deal with this
tragedy the longest, unless we get our acts together now. It will move you to
action!" - Bill McKibben, 350.org
"A fun and thoughtful film to spark one of the most important conversations
that students, and all of us, need to have: how clean, renewable energy can
replace fossil fuels as the energy source that powers our society." -
Jared Duval, former National Director, Sierra Student
Coalition
"Unlimited is the greatest film available today for kids in schools. It beats
An Inconvenient Truth hands down for kids. I love it. It talks about solutions.
It uses kids." - Dave Finnigan, Director and Founder, Climate Change is Elementary and Two
Years to Change
