Co-presented by Social Justice Film Festival!
This imaginative collection of international films is meant to inspire viewers to protect the planet and take good care of all the beautiful creatures who fill the earth, skies, and seas. These music videos, legends, remixes of familiar tales, and beautiful animated films honor the earth and those who promise to preserve it.
For ages 10+
Total running time: 80 min.
Content warning: These films all touch, in one way or another, on environmental issues and the plight of the planet during our present period of climate change. They are uplifting films that we hope will promote discussion at home. The Promise shows a dystopian city; Oasis is a fable about the environmental collapse and recovery of a small ecosystem, and contains some imagery that may be scary to the most sensitive young viewers. Coyote and Big Buff is a fable created by kids who have experienced the trauma of losing their home to a wildfire.
Answering the question, “What’s a story you’d tell someone who’s afraid of fire?”, two boys recall the night a fire swept through their neighborhood.
