About this Event

A special screening of Berlin-based filmmaker and journalist Ben Knight's new documentary " which grapples with the psychological and emotional impact of the possibility of civilisational collapse.

Terrified with the combined threat of the climate crisis, pandemic, food scarcity and war -- and all the other horrors he has to write about daily as a journalist - Ben travels from Berlin to London to Kansas to Norway, and then to the centre of all loss, the Chicxulub crater in Mexico, to learn from those preparing for social and ecological collapse.

Call them preppers, doomers, or bunker-dwellers, the collapse community turns out to be bigger than he thinks.

What does he learn? How does his journey change him? And is peace even possible in the crater of someone else’s extinction?


Praise for "We're All Going to Die"

Ben Knight is a brilliant film-maker and anyone who wants to figure out how to think about the fate of humanity should watch his excellent film.

Johann Hari, bestselling author of Stolen Focus and Chasing the Scream

Years in the making, this film’s release is perfectly timed between covid trauma and nuclear holocaust.

Jem Bendell, author of Deep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy

Ben takes us by the hand and leads us into some of the rabbit holes of apocalypse.

Michael Shaw, film-maker, Living In The Time Of Dying

Working with his fabulous crew, Ben did what he set out to do: confront our private and collective fears and emerge at the end of this film journey a changed, bigger and less fearful person. We can’t halt the end of the world, we can’t halt the end of ourselves – only the way we live with that knowledge.

- Maurice Frank, producer

After the screening, there will be a short discussion with the director and crew, followed by a drink in the Moviemento lounge.
