Vote for WINDFALL


The wind turbine has become a symbol of hope. The sleek white spokes spinning against the sky promise a future free of fossil fuels and the importation of foreign oil. Who could object to wind energy?

That’s what the residents of Meredith, New York thought when turbine salesmen came knocking on their doors. With local dairy farms in decline, the economy needed a boost. Similar scenarios are now playing out all over North America, as energy companies grow more bullish on wind. If you think this transition should be a breeze, Windfall offers a surprising reality check.


  Laura Israel brings her own distinctive approach to Windfall, paying careful attention to visual detail and sound design. Working with art director Alex Bingham and DP Brian Jackson, she brings freshness and vitality to the much-debated topic of renewable energy.
