Cool It is heading to TIFF next week, and the producers behind Ondi Timoner’s latest documentary film won’t have to sign a deal in the wee small hours in the morning, as Roadside Attractions have preemptively grabbed the rights to the “eco-docu” and are setting it with an eventual Fall release.

In Cool It, the doc-filmmaker behind DIG! and We Live in Public basically barks up Bjorn Lomborg’s tree, focusing on “the controversial author of “The Skeptical Environmentalist,” who takes on the issue of climate change, challenging the status quo, and pointing toward new science and technology that might hold the solutions for our future.” If you ask me, I’m looking forward to the eventual documentary that discusses climate change problem in terms of radical changes such as our needless consumption of animals and putting the breaks on the world population – the real problems that no one, apart from UN, are willing to really address.

Roadside Attractions’ co-president Eric d’Arbeloff appears to be hopeful with the doc stating that, “COOL IT is so exciting because it’s radically structured toward solutions. In the same way our movie THE COVE demonstrated that a small group of activists can change the world, we think that this brave film could help start real progress on global warming.” Wishful thinking Mr. D’Arbeloff.
