Polarized
by Joseph Skinner
A short film about two characters on opposite sides of the energy debate, and the middle ground between them.
About this work
In my short film, two characters, each with opposing views of the energy sector, are presented and developed to highlight the current divide among Canadians on this topic. This division has led to black-and-white perspectives held by many on both sides. In the conclusion of the film, the importance of the Canadian energy sector is emphasized through statements about its potential contributions to the Canadian economy.
However, the central message is that a better future can be achieved by embracing the benefits of both the energy and environmental sectors. By utilizing the wealth created, we can fund innovation in cleaner practices and potentially invent or discover new sources of energy.
