Having been involved in script writing and producing the trailer for In Transition 2.0, you could say this review will be biased. You’d be right. And my bias comes from the belief that this film is a powerful call to arms for a rapid evolution in the way we live and work together as it shows how collectively, we can effect extraordinary change.

In Transition 2.0 has a much deeper emotional thread running through and on several occasions I was moved to tears.

Today’s is from Moss Side in Manchester, followed by a great piece Joel Prittie from the group wrote for the Social Reporters’ blog about the screening.

There are various elements to this, the Website (launched today!), The Guardian Open Weekend screening, the DVD (available, as of tonight, for pre-order), and Organising Screenings. Let’s start with the first one:
Stand by for the announcement, hopefully before the end of today, of exciting developments in relation to the film ‘In Transition 2.0’! In the meantime, here is a great film produced by Kirklees Local TV about the preview screening there.
