"Peace Out is the story of British Columbia's magnificent Peace River and the true on-the-ground costs of fuelling North America's unrestrained thirst for energy. The film takes an unusually penetrating look at the positions of industry, science, and the activist movement in what has been hailed as '... a thoughtful, clear-eyed exploration of an issue that always ends in costs, trade-offs, and (the) least bad options. This is not just another environmental advocacy film ...' Wilkinson examines the real benefits vs. the actual costs of a new mega dam [the 'Site C' Dam proposal], unregulated hydro-fracking [the N.W. Shale Gas 'Plays'], the Peace nuclear proposal, and the Tar Sands. Peace Out is a movie about the true costs of energy. An intelligent debate that leaves the viewer to decide what to believe."--Container.
