“Everyone who is concerned about Peak Oil needs to see
this film. Cuba survived an energy famine during the
1990s, and how did it do so constitutes on of the most important
and hopeful stories of the past few decades. It is a
story not just of individual achievement, but of the collective
mobilizations of an entire society to meet an enormous
challenge.” - Richard Heinberg, author of The Party’s Over,
