Massive Attack’s 3D Teams With Young Fathers to Score Climate Change-Themed Film

La Fête est Finie, which translates as The Party Is Over, is a new film satirizing complacent attitudes toward climate change. The short, starring Fiona O’Shaughnessy (“Utopia”) and Natasha O’Keefee (“Peaky Blinders”, “Sherlock – The Abominable Bride”), is out now, to coincide with the COP21 summit in Paris. For the score, Massive Attack‘s 3D, aka Robert Del Naja, teamed with Young Fathers. Below, read part of a statement by director Mark Donne and 3D, and watch the film in full.

The consequences of failure are absolutely catastrophic, but that didn’t prevent the previous twenty Conferences of Parties doing precisely that.

As with any party, the skill is in knowing when to leave. For decades fossil fuel extracting trans-nationals and Western governments have continued to dance and partake long after the bright lights of climate science evidence were switched on and the deafening music of denial had its plug pulled. …

There must be a legally binding deal on emissions reductions. The poorer nations on earth must receive the support they desperately need from the rich, so they can prepare for the damage caused by climate change and invest in clean technologies to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

This film is a cultural contribution to the global public atmosphere that now demands that these imperatives are achieved by our governments.
