Are you looking for a life-changing, inspiring and thought-provoking doco to sink your teeth into? Chances are the Transitions Film Festival will have something for you. Now in their eighth year, the film festival offers a hand-picked selection of local and international documentaries aimed to empower, educate and enrapture audiences about the big issues affecting us today and in the future.
The impressive program covers nail-biting themes, including: creative and technological innovation, the future of food, gender equality, renewable energy, and the power of artificial intelligence. Our highlight? We’re split 50/50 over Energy Pioneers or A Living Earth.
Directed by Samuel Stefan, the Swiss doco Energy Pioneers showcases the visionaries who are convinced that their ideas will contribute to solving humanity’s challenging problems – that being, to build a better world and one with clean energy.
Inspired by the revolutionary work of David Holmgren, A Living Earth focuses on the power of permaculture and the world of sustainable ecosystems. The documentary follows experts, trainees and children living in a Belgian city called Spa, who make the impossible possible through the eyes of “design” in order to live within our biosphere’s limits.
The Transitions Film Festival is screening at Cinema Nova till Saturday, 8 March. Don’t miss it!
