Sarah Harmer takes Fight for Escarpment to Big Screen

SARAH HARMER’S “Escarpment Blues” A Film by Andy Keen

Escarpment Blues, directed by Andy Keen, chronicles Sarah Harmer’s fight to stop the destruction of the Niagara Escarpment and preserve Ontario’s Greenbelt. Harmer’s 2005 I Love the Escarpment Tour was captured on film as she and her band played in community halls and theatres, hiking and kayaking along the Escarpment’s Bruce Trail. Part concert film and part documentary about the threat to the Niagara Escarpment, Escarpment Blues is a loving tribute to one of Ontario’s most beautiful rural areas and the people who live there. See the trailer at www.sarahharmer.com.

"I hope this film alerts people in Southern Ontario to the magnificence that lies so close to home. There's nothing like parking the car and getting out on the trail. I hope it also shines a light on the not always sexy but satisfying results of working locally. All the big environmental issues are embodied in our collective backyards."--Sarah Harmer

Sarah Harmer and Andy Keen will be screening their film in some of the towns they visited on the tour. Join them for a lively public discussion about how communities can demand responsible resource development and protect the natural wealth we all share.
