FORCED RENEWABLES - 52' VERSION
The hidden side of an energy transition that failed to take into account social consensus in rural areas. In Lopera, a small town in Jaén, the promise of ecological transition turns into a nightmare. Centuries-old olive groves, the legacy of generations of farmers, are being uprooted to make way for massive photovoltaic plants, in an unfair battle between powerful corporations and a community fighting to protect its land.
Through firsthand testimonies, striking visuals, and an in-depth analysis of the current energy model, Forced Renewables exposes how progress, when poorly planned and disconnected from rural life, can become an unprecedented ecological, social, and economic disaster.
PLOT SUMMARY: This movie presents the situation that some rural populations are experiencing. In this case, the town of Lopera in Jaén is a clear example of inadequate management and implementation of renewable energy with a lack of social consensus that has led to a series of forced expropriations.
