A SCREENING
You can inspire community action by acting now >
HOST
'I laughed, I cried and I felt so damn proud of what community can achieve'. Jeanette Martin
The Bentley Effect is best experienced in a group setting with your own community. Therefore we highly recommend hosting a screening of your own. Screenings can be held anytime, at any venue, wherever you are.
You can host a screening to educate your own community, as a fundraiser for your activities, to inspire meaningful community action or simply as a focal point and conversation starter.
Although the vehicle for this story is the fight against gasfield industrialisation, this film is really about community and what community can do when it stands together. So it can be used as a community building tool for any issue really.
PUBLIC SCREENINGS
If you would like to put on a fundraiser and screen the film at a community venue of your choice (local cinema, hall, theatre, workplace, school, university etc) please select the expected audience size and purchase the corresponding screening licence (see below).
We will send you a DVD to screen and a set of digital resources to help you promote and organise a successful screening. The Screening Kit includes the trailer, posters to customise, Facebook banners and other promotional artwork.
If you wish to show the film at a cinema, a DCP will usually be required. Please email the Bentley Effect team: bentleyeffect@gmail.com
*Q&As with the Director and/or lead characters / key campaigners can also be organised.
Any further queries regarding screenings please contact the Bentley Effect team: bentleyeffect@gmail.com

This is a time for bold action and big thinking.
As a result of a recent Bentley Effect film screening at The Mercury Cinema in Adelaide the “Gasfield Free SA-Adelaide Hills Alliance” group formed and quickly recruited 120+ members. The Protectors movement is growing exponentially and every screening and every action has an effect.
The producers appreciate your support for their work.
As a host you will already understand the importance of supporting independent film making and its place in our ‘must win’ battles. Film making is a costly and time consuming venture. Licensing fees help us service project debts and recoup production costs associated with the film. It also supports further marketing, distribution and administration of the film and helps ensure the film making medium is sustainable for future projects.
