Everything’s coming together while everything’s falling apart: Ende Gelände

Everything’s coming together while everything’s falling apart: Ende Gelände

Year:
Media: 4K video, 12 min.

The film on the Ende Gelände (end of the road) action shifts the focus to a massive civil disobedience action at the
Lusatia lignite coal fields (near Berlin). 4,000 activists entered an open-cast mine, blocking the loading station and the
rail connection to a coal-fired power plant. The blockades disrupted the coal supply and forced the Swedish proprietor
Vattenfall to shut the power station down.
The action was part of an international “global escalation” against the fossil fuel industry, calling on the world to “Break
Free from Fossil Fuels” and putting that imperative directly into practice.
“Everything’s coming together while everything’s falling apart: Ende Gelände” is part of Oliver Ressler’s ongoing
project “Everything’s coming together while everything’s falling apart” that follows the struggles against a fossil fueldependent
economy.
