Green Screen: Eco Film Fest
Tickets Only £4.50
Rivers have always shaped our landscape, history and culture, flowed through our imagination and dreams. And this extraordinary film spanning six continents brilliantly captures their majesty, mystery, wildness – and vulnerability if they are not respected.
Robert Macfarlane provides a sparse, poetic and timeless script, perfectly partnered with haunting music from Radiohead and Jonny Greenwood. Rivers are shown on grand scales and from unusual perspectives, with audiences going with the flow like never before. Narrated by actor Willem Dafoe.
Green Screen: Eco Film Fest
Coming up with ideas for Chichester’s contribution to The Big Green Week, a national event to raise awareness of our climate change emergency, taking place at the end of September, thoughts by the city’s various eco groups quickly turned to film. No surprise there as film is such a powerful medium to inspire, educate, expose, entertain and call to action. So, we are delighted to be teaming up with Chichester Cinema at New Park to put on four films on Mondays from September 19 to October 10. Look out for the Green Screen logo. These stunning documentaries from around the world have been carefully chosen to provide cinema-goers with hope, optimism and solutions while facing up to and exploring the damage we have wreaked on the planet. They might give you a renewed sense of wonder and respect for our natural world, they may encourage you to rise up, they may enthuse you to reset your life or make changes to the everyday. We really hope so.
