Ten years ago, grassroots activists from around the world went to Paris and told the truth about the climate crisis. The Paris Accords that followed kowtowed to corporate interests, weren't legally binding, and had no mention of fossil fuels anywhere in the text of the agreement. They knew what would happen. And here we are today.
Stream Not Without Us starting on Earth Day, April 22, then join us for a live panel conversation on May 6.
At the 2015 U.N. Climate talks in Paris, two weeks after terrorists attacks created a state of emergency that outlawed all "unofficial" political gatherings, follow seven global grassroots activists as they attempt to unleash the only force that can prevent catastrophic climate change: the will of the people.
Not Without Us documents a crucial moment in history, framing the root causes of the global climate crisis and the greatest inequality in the history of mankind, as one and the same. Seen from the perspective of frontline communities, the film interweaves the personal stories and motivations of the activists portrayed, conveying to a broader audience why the call for deeper and far reaching change is not only necessary, but also humane.
