Film Synopsis: Not Without Us

Director: Mark Decena | Countries of production: United States | Year: 2016 | Length: 72 min
Language: English | Age: 12+ years

A rousing documentary immersing viewers in the moving, personal journeys of seven grassroots campaigners from around the world as they attempt to harness the only force that can prevent catastrophic climate change: the will of the people.  

From decreasing biodiversity to indigenous land rights abuses, Not Without Us connects the dots between growing economic inequality, fossil fuel driven economies and government inaction in the face of the greatest crisis engulfing our planet.  Putting frontline communities’ perspectives at its centre, it powerfully conveys their call for deep, far-reaching system change.
