The Evening
Doors will open at 6:00pm with a supper and silent auction. This year's films will begin at 7:00 pm and will be shown in two segments, with dessert served at the intermission. We also have great environment-focused ideas and activities planned throughout the evening.
This year’s festival opens with the acclaimed documentary “Tapped.” This fascinating and polished expose looks at the privitization of water and, trust us… You will never look at your bottle of water the same way again!
Welcome to an evening of dynamic films, convivial company, delicious foods, and a chance to engage and enjoy. For more information visit: www.e-action.us or call 617-227-1522.
The Films
By bringing a mix of films from filmmakers all around the country, The Wild and Scenic Environmental Film Festivalgathers important ideas and voices. Here, there are films about activism and new inventions, about the challenges facing wildlife, and about the people standing up to those challenges. The Film Festival stands apart by its ability to leave you feeling engaged and motivated to go out and make a difference in your community and the world.
In this, our second annual Wild and Scenic Environmental Film Festival, we will show films that demonstrate the beauty of the desert, the predicaments currently facing our water supply, and the work communities are doing to protect the planet. Take, for example, the story of the young man trained by Al Gore’s team to teach about global warming to youth. Perhaps the challenges of cap and trade or the story of the grade-school children in Australia that use 5-minutes every morning to change the world will light a fire for your own activism.
The "e" inc. - hosted Wild and Scenic Environmental Festival will take viewers across the globe as we see pristine habitats, oil resources accessed beneath farms, and activism by young people preserving habitats around the globe.
