THE RELUCTANT RADICAL returns to Portland!
FILMMAKER AND FILM SUBJECT IN PERSON FOR PRE-FILM RECEPTION & POST-FILM Q & A

If a crime is committed in order to prevent a greater crime, is it forgivable? Is it, in fact, necessary? THE RELUCTANT RADICAL follows activist Ken Ward as he confronts his fears and puts himself in the direct path of the fossil fuel industry to combat climate change. The film reveals both the personal costs and also the fulfillment that comes from following one’s moral calling- even if that means breaking the law. The film follows Ken through a series of direct actions, culminating with an action that shuts down all the U.S. tar sands oil pipelines and threatens to put him behind bars for 20 years.

Before the film, at 6:00, come meet the film subject/climate activist Ken Ward and film Director Lindsey Grayzel at a reception where light food and drinks will be served. After the film, join us for a post-film discussion. 350 PDX will be on hand to encourage your involvement in local climate action campaigns.
