Description

Climate Change Cinema explores pairings of current, classic, cult, and films with lively introductions and conversations by notable figures from the world of science and technology around the topics of climate change and sea level rise. As our community is situated between the Everglades and the Atlantic, we seek to illuminate and explore scientific issues related to our environment that have a tangible impact on our lives.

 

ARTIFISHAL is a film about people, wild rivers, and the fight for the future of wild fish and the environment that supports them. It explores wild salmon’s slide towards extinction, threats posed by fish hatcheries and fish farms, and our continued loss of faith in nature. Salmon have long been an icon of wild, but in our rush to meet demand and mask the larger root environmental issues, we’ve forgotten the true value of wild. Ultimately the film sets two ideologies at odds; those who embrace the power of nature to heal, and those who believe in a world that requires our continued attempts to control nature.

Portions of the revenue generated from this screening will go to benefit a handful of local charities.
