CCFF WILL BE BACK IN 2023

CCFF platforms stunning, diverse, and eye-opening cinema, providing a systemic perspective behind the raw human stories of climate change.

Mobilising meaningful climate action through culture

We are a curatorial platform for climate-conscious cinema. We ran three festival editions under the name Climate Crisis Film Festival, culminating in a large 2021 programme connected to COP26, which reached a viewership of 220k across 143 countries.

Since 2022, we have evolved into a distributed festival model, partnering with other film festivals, cultural institutions, and organisations worldwide to bring climate storytelling to broader audiences at 3-5 events each year.

Viewing the climate
through a systemic lens

Unlike conservation-focused or awareness-only green festivals, CCFF takes a systemic lens on the climate crisis and an active approach to driving real change. Rather than treating climate change as a purely environmental issue, we approach it as a systemic, social, economic, and cultural challenge, using film and the arts as catalysts for collective engagement.

Our events are designed not only to showcase compelling films and multidisciplinary artworks, but also to link them to concrete pathways to action and changemaking.
