Premiered at The Santa Barbara International Film Festival. "Greetings from Summerland" is an investigative environmental documentary that unveils the little-known history and environmental impacts of the world's first offshore oil wells in Summerland, California. This history spans back to the late 1800s when the offshore wells were first successfully drilled, through the 1960s as they were capped for the first time, and into the future, as more modern capping efforts and techniques are implemented. Featuring insights from Dr. Ira Leifer, a marine science researcher whose expertise sheds light on the scientific challenges of mitigating these impacts, and Keri Hedden, a resident, and painter, whose personal accounts add depth to the narrative by illustrating the community's lived experiences with oil seepage. The documentary highlights the broader implications of methane emissions from abandoned wells globally, presenting a deep dive into the consequences of these pioneering projects and the subsequent efforts to cap the leaking wellhead on a local scale to show global implications. It serves as a compelling narrative on the urgent need for awareness, ingenuity, and action in addressing environmental negligence and preserving our planet's resources.
