Movies in Moscow – 27th-30th May

Wednesday, May 26th, 2010

To follow on from the previous post… an invite has been extended for 3 of the Our World 2.0 Indigenous climate films to screen in Moscow at the H20 film festival from the  27-30th May, 2010. I think our 3 films will be screening on the Friday night (28th May) around 7:30pm. For more information check out the festival’s site:  http://www.kino35mm.ru/

I also found a short Moscow times article listing the 4 day program. After finally finishing the Russian subtitles for these beauties, oh, how I wish I could be there to cheer everybody’s stories along! Raaaaa!!!!!

3 traditional knowledge climate films selected for Australian human rights festival

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

Three of our Media Studio’s Our World 2.0 short documentaries “Land has Breath”, “The Forbidden Forest of the Dayak”, and “Fighting Carbon with Fire” have been selected to screen in 5 cities across Australia, as a part of the Human Rights and Arts Film Festival 2010.

They are part of an 18 month UNU project from 2008-09 (there are some previous posts about the filmmaking process of these docos on this site). These community collaborations, carrying important Indigenous climate change perspectives, will be screening in the festival’s “Reel Change – Climate Change shorts” program.  Other films in the line-up include the resounding short film “The Water Diary” directed by Jane Campion (The Piano), which premiered at Cannes Film festival 2006.

If you are in Moscow, this shorts program has recently been invited to screen there later this summer. We are busily adding the russian subtitles, and I’ll let you know when Russian dates are confirmed.

For Australian bound bodies, check HRAFF festival website for full program with specific venue dates/times.

MELBOURNE 23 APRIL – 9 MAY.
CANBERRA 27 MAY – 29 MAY.
ADELAIDE 14 MAY – 16 MAY.
