This film follows the hope and heartbreak of unemployed American workers seeking jobs in the solar industry. With countries like China investing in innovative technologies and capitalizing on this trillion-dollar opportunity, we learn of the global energy transition from the perspective of workers and entrepreneurs building solutions to income inequality and climate change. Their successes and failures speak to one of the biggest questions of our time: Will the U.S. actually be able to build a clean energy economy?

There will be a post-film discussion by Dr. Sharon Klein, Associate Professor of Economics.
