Film "The Cost of Growth" in Flensburg
Gewerkschaftshaus
DDGB Flensburg and the NEC invite you to the film "The Cost of Growth" on extractivism and democracy – with discussion.
On 23 September 2026, DGB Stadtverband Flensburg in cooperation with the Norbert Elias Center (NEC), Europa-Universität Flensburg, is screening the documentary "The Cost of Growth" by Anuna De Wever and Lena Hartog (directed by Thomas Maddens) at the Gewerkschaftshaus (Große Straße 21–23), starting at 7 pm, followed by a discussion.
The film connects local struggles against extractivism in Serbia, Italy, and Sápmi with broader debates on justice, democracy, and war, showing how people across Europe are not only resisting false solutions but also creating alternatives. The evening touches on questions of socio-ecological transformation, a topic also researched at the NEC.
We are organizing whispered interpretation to German.
The screening will be followed by a discussion
