Join us for an evening of cinematic exploration at The Climate Future Film Festival, an inspiring event founded by Jim Stahl that delves into the artistic and human responses to the climate crisis and the paths that may lie ahead. The festival promises a thought-provoking program that highlights the power of storytelling in addressing one of the most pressing issues of our time.Program Highlights
This eclectic lineup features 10 short films from four continents, showcasing a variety of genres, including drama, documentary, comedy, and award-winning animation. These films capture the spectrum of emotional and intellectual responses to climate change—from optimism and resilience to grief and resolve. Expect moments of humor (yes, humor!) alongside poignant reflections and stunning visuals.
Renowned climate leader and author Bill McKibben serves as the festival’s Honorary Judge. As part of the screening, Bill will provide an engaging video introduction, offering insights into the films and their relevance to our shared climate challenges. He has also personally selected the three top films to receive awards during the program. Although Bill will only appear on video during this screening, he will be at the Whaling Museum in person the following day for the New Bedford Lyceum program.
