It's a shame this wasn't far more subtle, since problems with industrial wind power have long been excused by the media and profiteers who fancy themselves environmentalists.
I was hoping for something that didn't smack of Trump claiming these space-hogs (directly) cause cancer, giving their supporters an excuse to ignore other health risks. Conflating speculation with legitimate complaints allows defenders to skip context. Infrasound and other noise has been well documented as a problem but this film barely goes into detail.
I suppose the makers assume enough people know of the issues, so they needn't elaborate. But the plot was still excessive. Overall I can't recommend it because it goes too far and explains too little. I gave it a 5 for daring to take on the topic in some way.
High point: It's a shame that the shapely field-lead didn't get luckier.
Related trivia: The 2012 movie, "Promised Land" was originally going to be about wind power, not fracking.
