Director Nick Broomfield tells the story of the Kingsnorth Six, a group of Greenpeace volunteers who scaled the 220m chimney at a coal fired power station in Kent in 2007 to protest against government plans to build new coal plants across Britain. In 2009 E-on where forced to shelve their plans to build a Kingsnorth coal power plant.
The film features the music of Nick Laird-Clowes performed by David Gilmore of Pink Floyd among others.
This made my jaw drop open. It's good to know that somewhere out there, there are still people who will stand up to opression and do what is right. Those six are heros for what they did!

Im proud to live in a country where people like this still exist, who stand up for what they believe in.
hopefully they wouldnt have left the power plant offline for much longer, otherwise significant damage would have been done.
