Cinema Verde, a non-profit dedicated to environmental education, will host its 15th annual film festival at Cypress and Grove Brewing Company in Gainesville, featuring films directed by an array of artists who value the natural environment.
On April 20-22, the festival promises an enriching cinematic experience and counters misleading information surrounding climate change. In light of various educational bodies’ recent decisions to feature climate-related content that is derived from industry and may not be valid scientifically, Cinema Verde remains dedicated to delivering accurate information rooted in science.
With concern regarding misinformation infiltrating the general public and classrooms, Cinema Verde Director Trish Riley states that “Cinema Verde emphasizes sound science by presenting environmental truths through powerful and thought-provoking films.”
Embrace Cinema Verde in this dual initiative — promoting environmental value through education and celebrating the truth through cinema.
