Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Redwood City, 2124 Brewster Ave, Redwood City

The new documentary film BIDDER 70 is the story of Tim DeChristopher, a University of Utah student who derailed a widely protested Bush Administration federal oil and gas land sale, bidding millions to save thousands of pristine acres surrounding US National Parks - with no intention of paying or drilling.  Bidder 70 follows Tim as he maneuvers legal purgatory, over 2 years and 9 trial postponements.  With the threat of prison looming, DeChristopher steps up his activism and matures into a charismatic, ingenious, and non-violent climate action leader.  

This film debuted at film festivals in 2012 and has won 7 awards including "Audience Choice and Green Fire Award" at the American Conservation Film Festival.

72 minutes followed by discussion. SPECIAL GUEST Dylan Rose Schneider of Peaceful Uprising
