    Climate catastrophe? Normal solar activity? The end of civilization as we know it? COOL IT is based upon the book of the same name and lectures by Bjorn Lomborg, the controversial author of The Skeptical Environmentalist.

    Acclaimed award-winning filmmaker Ondi Timoner travels the world with Lomborg exploring the real facts and true science of global warming and its impact. Lomborg is the founder of the economic think tank, Copenhagen Consensus, which brings together the world's leading economists to prioritize major global problems -- among them malaria, the lack of potable water and HIV/AIDS -- based upon a cost/benefit analysis of available solutions. Amidst the strong and polarized opinions within the global warming debate, COOL IT follows Lomborg on his mission to bring the smartest solutions to our energy needs, carbon emissions and other major problems in the world.

    Just one of the more than 100 films screening at the 13th annual Indie Memphis Film Festival, October 21-24 in Midtown Memphis. For the complete film schedule, please visit www.indiememphis.com/program
