The Last Garden
In a smog-filled city, seventy-year-old Henry finds escape in the last community garden, now under threat from looming construction. When he clashes with Narjisse, a young activist determined to fight back, their unlikely encounter tests two generations and sparks the possibility of awakening a passive community.
Waste and the City - The Mavallipura Landfill Story
Waste management challenges in Bangalore are exemplified by the Mavallipura landfill. From 2003 to 2012, over 1 million tonnes of waste were dumped, prompting community protests. Decades of advocacy led to legal reforms, highlighting the ongoing struggle for dignity among Karnataka's sanitation workers.
The Butterfly Man
The Butterfly Man follows Isaac Kehimkar, a passionate naturalist who has spent his life protecting India's butterflies. Born in Mumbai, one of the world's most crowded cities, Isaac creates butterfly gardens and teaches children. His story unfolds with the butterfly's metamorphosis, a transformation both remarkable and rarely seen up close.
Reviving Rare Native Plants - One Seedling at a time
In Tamil Nadu, Kavitha and Bharathidasan nurture over 125,000 native seedlings annually, focusing on rare and lesser-known species. Through their plant nurseries, they strive to restore biodiversity in rapidly urbanising landscapes, offering hope and preserving the diversity of flora that modern development threatens to erase.
Puffling
Teenagers Birta and Selma spend their nights rescuing pufflings on a remote Icelandic island, guiding them safely to sea after they mistake harbour lights for the moon. Puffling is a coming-of-age story of responsibility, resilience, and the delicate ties binding human life to the natural world.
Future Council
Damon Gameau, award winning filmmaker behind 2040 and That Sugar Film, takes eight kids on the ultimate school excursion: a road trip across Europe to meet with powerful leaders and find solutions to our greatest ecological challenges, from the unique perspective of youth.
Studio Alternatives - The Circle of Things
Choosing the Alternative Way, set against today's throwaway culture, follows designers Sonali and Dhara as they trace a path where circularity guides creation. Collecting discarded materials, they reimagine waste into useful forms. Their living library embodies care, renewal, and the endless cycles of nature.
Seeing Red: Saving Red Pandas
With only 2,500 red pandas remaining in the wild, climate change and habitat loss threaten their survival. Follow the success and challenges of a breeding program aiming to reintroduce these endangered creatures to their native forests in India and Nepal.
