Pay-what-you-can tickets from £3. Part of our FOOTPRINTS environmental strand. The screening will be followed by a LIVE Q&A with the filmmaker. More information soon. THE FELLING is a first-hand account of an extraordinary and shocking tale, where Sheffield citizens from 18-90 years old rose up and became modern-day heroes by putting their bodies on the line to stop the destruction of their city's healthy street trees and help save the planet from climate Armageddon. A true David-and-Goliath story about how a community of determined residents in one of Europe’s greenest cities, battled peacefully with a powerful city council, a giant multinational corporation and the police that came to chop down their beloved street trees in the middle of the night, as part of a massive £2.2 billion private contract to maintain their city's highways. When an injunction threatens peaceful protesters with bankruptcy and imprisonment, ordinary citizens are forced to ask themselves the crucial question: How far am I prepared to go to save a tree?PT2H15M12A2025-06-15Eve Wood; Jacqui Bellamy
