Change Season: Preview Screening – You’ve Been Trumped

Screening August 12, 2011 7:00 PM

A daring and provacative film, You’ve Been Trumped takes an investigate look into the effects of Donald Trump’s proposed luxury golf resort being built on what conservationists call the “crown jewels” of Scotland’s natural wildlife.

In the face of political pressure from the Scottish Government, filmmaker Anthony Baxter examines the devastating ecological impact of the course on the coastal landscape north of Aberdeen. We see residents who have had their water shut off, land ruined, and voices silenced in their attempts to reverse the decision to develop the property.

Combining press conferences with Trump, residents’ protests, environmental activists, and expert’s views, the film shows the extent of Donald Trump’s influence, his power and privilege and bullying tactics.
