"I'm deeply honored to be showcasing my film at the Clinton Library," stated filmmaker David M. Edwards. "The idea of suburban sprawl and peak oil if finally becoming mainstream, and to be able to share the ideas and information within this film in this location means a lot to me."

Sprawling From Grace; Driven To Madness explores how our nation is responding to the growing concerns of peak oil and the looming oil crises, and investigates the ability of alternative energy to replace petroleum. Featuring interviews with such notables as former President Bill Clinton and former Governor of Massachusetts Michael Dukakis, the film reveals the relationship between transportation and development, and advocates for change in the way in which we build our cities.

"The more we can elevate the arguments presented in this film, the more opportunity we have to affect meaningful change at the political level," stated Edwards.
