Screening includes a pre-recorded filmmaker Q&A.


This program will transport you across the globe for five unique perspectives on pressing environmental issues. From bat experts in India, to lumberjacks in Japan, to snowboarders in Sweden, these five films exemplify the interconnectedness of our experiences and challenges in the face of climate change and biodiversity collapse.

On the Northwestern coast of Sardinia lives the last native Italian colony of griffon vultures (Gyps fulvus). Domenico Ruiu, an experienced photographer and conservationist, tells us about the dangers threatening the survival of the colony and about the work of the 'Life Under Griffon Wings' project which is fighting to ensure a safe future for the colony.
