BINGHAMTON – Documentary film maker Josh Fox will be in Binghamton live and in person for the local premiere of his new film, “Gasland,” winner of this year’s special jury prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

The screening event will be held on Tuesday, June 15 at 6:30 p.m. at Binghamton West Middle School Auditorium.

“Gasland” tells the story of the effects of the largest domestic natural gas drilling boom in history that is sweeping across the United States. The Halliburton-developed drilling technology of hydraulic fracturing has unlocked a “Saudia Arabia of natural gas” just beneath us, according excerpts from the film.
