CANCELLED Nick Broomfield presents A Time Comes
Nick Broomfield's new film, A Time Comes: The Story of the Kingsnorth Six, looks at the celebrated case of the Kingsnorth 6. In 2007 environmental activists scaled the smokestack at Kingsnorth power station in Kent and painted Gordon Brown’s name down the side.
Charged with £30k of criminal damage they faced jail, but argued in court that what they did was justified because of climate change. In a ground-breaking verdict the jury acquitted them.
