The Bentley Effect (2017)
When the Northern Rivers of NSW community found their home being threatened by gas field industrialization, a critical mass of citizens from all walks of life responded to the call.Told through the eyes of the "Protectors" over a five-year period and inter-cut with fresh insight from some of the world's leading social commentators, this feature documentary captures and celebrates what is described as the non-violent 'Eureka Stockade' of our time.

This is by far the most powerful and inspiring movie I have seen on effective community organizing and activism to protect our precious planet for future generations. It's highly recommended for a dose of optimism. In a fine example of great storytelling, this beautifully produced movie is a gripping tribute to the commitment of the people of the Northern Rivers, who put their bodies on the line to care for the earth that sustains us.
