We have developed an award-winning, international, environmental film festival which provides a platform for young filmmakers to articulate their concerns about the climate crisis through the medium of filmmaking. We received over 4000 film submissions from 118 countries worldwide in our first years of development. The festival presents new and inspirational stories addressing the climate crisis, nature’s degradation, and highlights pathways for sustainable futures through human-nature reconnections.
Earth Stories provides a wonderful opportunity to showcase young people’s exceptional awareness of the existential environmental issues and concerns for our planet. In the face of environmental challenge, we are calling for change, using the power of storytelling to engage communities locally and worldwide to reconnect with nature and to reimagine our relationship with the planet.
We are proud to be amplifying voices of young people who are 14-25 years old and from diverse communities, cultures, and backgrounds.
