INJECTION AND OUTRAGE

Director: Winter Rey Wilson

An Athens County mother-turned-activist is the subject of this new documentary produced by Ohio University student Winter Rey Wilson about the controversial practice of hydraulic fracturing. “I grew up in Athens learning about a lot of very important environmental justice issues happening in my own community,” Wilson says in a press release, “injection well waste being one that’s especially prevalent.” Wilson’s influences for this documentary include Josh Fox (Gasland) and Errol Morris (Vernon, Florida).

Injection and Outrage is a 15-minute look at one woman’s fight against injection wells in her community as she strives to protect her own land and that of her mother’s. Admission is free and will include a Q&A with Wilson after the screening.
