Future Council

MEET THE FILMMAKER: Friday August 1, 7:30pm. Join filmmaker Damon Gameau for a post-screening Q&A.

An inspiring and rollicking journey through Europe, where eight children join Damon Gameau (That Sugar Film, 2040) to better understand the climate crisis.

Millions of children around the world are frustrated by the dire lack of action to protect the planet and their future. Given their youth, these voices are often overlooked and ignored in favour of older representatives. That all changes when director Damon Gameau (2040, That Sugar Film) invites eight children on an epic adventure across Europe in a school bus powered by biofuel. Their mission is to better understand the planet’s predicament, explore solutions and, most importantly, take the conversation into the boardrooms of some of the world’s largest polluters and most influential companies. Together, Gameau and these children form a FUTURE COUNCIL; a child-led movement that inspires and empowers young people to lead, in order to advise and influence the world's most powerful companies on their decisions that impact nature.
