Peak Oil

Directed by

Sooner or later, it will happen: oil can't last forever, and given the dramatic increase in extraction in recent years to meet ever-expanding demand, the critical moment could already be just around the corner... But with what consequences? Larry Larstead attempts to answer this disturbing question using only sounds and images captured in the Northern Rivers region of Australia.

Director's Notes

«Have you noticed, more cars, more trucks, more road building? Peak Oil deals with the recent world-wide speculation that global oil production has reached its peak and may now be in serious decline. Peak Oil is a short atmospheric documentary film shot in the Northern-Rivers region of NSW, Australia, and tackles the big question: 'What happens when the oil starts running out?’».
