Wrenched explores civil disobedience and the defense of wilderness
Join us on April 27th at 7pm in the Gallery Room at Newcomb Hall, UVA where Wild Virginia will be screening the documentary, Wrenched.
The film describes the impact writer and environmental activist Edward Abbey had on the emerging environmental movement of the 1970s and 80s and the lasting impression he had on the young activists of today. 
A collection of interviews, archival footage, and re-enactments, the film captures the passion and fury of Abbey and his friends, exemplified by the growing atmosphere of direct action and civil disobedience in the defense of wilderness. This message is not lost in today’s activism and fight to sustain what remains of America’s untapped lands.
Wrenched asks us all how far we are willing to go in the defense of wilderness.
