The Power of Community

Cuba is the only economy in the world to have moved away from total dependence on petroleum and natural gas; Cuba’s experience can serve as a model for the rest of us. This 53-minute, award-winning documentary provides a glimpse of what is possible when a community reinvests its financial, educational and social capital in its own people and the systems that sustain life - food, energy and health care.

After the movie, be part of a lively discussion about what a sustainable, vibrant and resilient Sonoma Valley might look like. What do you imagine? What are you passionate about? Join the conversation!

In collaboration with the Sonoma Community Center, the Sonoma Valley Grange and other partners,Transition Sonoma Valley (TSV) is presenting a series of educational films that explore how communities like ours can respond to current economic and environmental challenges. Without shrillness, but with a certain sense of urgency, the films trace the practices and policies that have led us to crisis and suggest pathways to local and global resiliency.
