KYRS presents the film “Gasland” on Monday

Paul Dillon


Do you have any plans on Monday night? If not, what the frack? I hope you’ll check out Gasland , which is being presented by KYRS, Thin Air Community Radio . The film will show May 14th at 7PM at the wonderful Magic Lantern Theatre in downtown Spokane. It explores fracking- the destructive practice of natural gas extraction. In this Academy Award-nominated documentary, director Josh Fox learns from people who live near “fracking” sites about illnesses, hair loss and flammable water. He travels the country plunging ever deeper into a web of secrets, lies, conspiracy, and contamination.

Tickets are available at the door for $7 general admission and $3 Students w/ ID. This is a benefit for KYRS. There will be a discussion hosted by Envision Spokane’s Kai Huschke after the film. For more information, please call 747-3012.

Check the trailer after the jump.
