Two artists in Walthamstow set out to take their street off the grid, kickstarting a solar-powered energy revolution.
About this Event

Inspired 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.Soup and Screening night at Drylaw Neighbourhood Centre, 67b Groathill Rd North, EH4 2 SA.

FILM PREVIEW:

“I will say, without any sense of exaggeration or hyperbole, that this is one of the most important films ever made. Everyone needs to see it.”
– Rob Hopkins, co-founder, Transition Network
