In the depths of the pandemic, artist-activists Hilary Powell and Dan Edelstyn decide that instead of power bills going through the roof, power should come off the roof. They launch a grassroots plan to turn their street into a solar power station, embarking on a turbulent journey involving a new currency, smoke bombs, and a hit pop single. By turns funny and heartwarming, the film is a vibrant portrait of community resilience and a scalable, “in-your-face” prototype of community-led energy.This documentary with classic english humour, presents the emotional trials of making change together—from sleeping on rooftops to growing thousands of sunflowers—proving the power of art in reimagining what is possible.
