Suburbia, and all it promises, has become the American Dream. The film “The End of Suburbia” introduced the concept of Peak Oil (the point at which world-wide oil production peaks, and after which it declines). Now, in “Escape from Suburbia,” theory gives way to reality as a global debate rages over when demand will outpace supply. The new film documents the emerging movement of citizens’ groups confronting our addiction to oil and follows individuals from different walks of life as they take on the most dramatic shift in modern history.
Escape from Suburbia is a wake-up call that challenges the illusion of never-ending growth based on the availability of cheap and abundant oil.
