The Marjorie Luke Theatre continues its Green Film Series in 2025, presenting thought-provoking films, panel discussions, and speakers, all targeting pressing environmental issues.

The first event of the 2025 Green Film Series is the screening of “Broke,” a documentary by Santa Barbara filmmaker Gail Osherenko, 4 p.m. Sunday, April 13.

“Broke” tells the story of the Line 901 oil pipeline rupture, which spilled 140,000 gallons of crude oil onto the Gaviota Coast in the spring of 2015.

The environmental disaster had devastating effects on marine life, local communities, and the region’s ecosystem. Through storytelling and investigative reporting, Osherenko’s film sheds light on the incident’s causes, consequences, and ongoing efforts to prevent future spills.

Following the screening will be a panel discussion featuring experts and community leaders, including Osherenko; Linda Krop, chief counsel at the Environmental Defense Center; a representative from State Assemblyman Gregg Hart’s office; and a video representation from Congressman Salud Carbajal’s office.
