Cinema Verde film festival Feb. 12-14, 2022
From the festival selection:
12th HOUR, directed by Susan Kucera
Much of our population currently lives with hopeful delusions about climate change. These delusions, many of which are built in by evolution, hamper our ability to meaningfully address the problem.
Emmy-nominated actor David Morse narrates the brutally honest 12th hour with insight from noted evolutionary biologists, climate scientists, cognitive researchers and psychologists.
Mauna: A Portal To The Universe, directed by Riley Brunner
Plans to build the Thirty Meter Telescope on the summit of the sacred Mauna Kea sparks another battle in a decades-long struggle between Indigenous Hawaiians and astronomers.
ARICA, directed by Lars Edman, William Johansson
A Swedish mining giant dumps hazardous waste in Arica in northern Chile. Subsequently thousands of inhabitants are damaged.
Now the survivors are seeking justice in a groundbreaking transnational corporate accountability trial.
CO2? CO-Nee! directed By Joep van Dijk
Joep van Dijk is a passionate climate scientist. He likes to search for extreme examples that show how life can be lived sustainably. This documentary follows Joep on his CO2-neutral journey from Amsterdam to the United States of America and shows how this choice inspires himself and others to live a climate conscious life.

Tune in to nature: Cinema Verde is available now as a streaming platform, offering 13 years of film festival solutions to the ever-growing amount of environmental conflicts.
Watch movies like the one of Claudia Adams - a woman who was close to dying. Something invisible was harming her, but no one would believe her. Using a 2007 SONY Handycam, she began filming herself with the intention of providing clues to the coroner. Over the course of six months of filming, she discovered that she had poisoned herself with dry-cleaning solvent she had brought home in her wool blankets. When she regained her strength, she turned the footage into her "deathbed documentary," which premiered at Cinema Verde. Dry-Clean Only paved Claudia's way to becoming an award-winning filmmaker who has since produced three films, two of which qualified for Oscars.
"Cinema Verde as a streaming platform provides the opportunity for awareness - A passport to see how the world is connected even from afar, and what you overlook every day right outside your own front door," says Film Director Trish Riley, adding, "The goal is to inspire a collaborative spirit and commitment to a healthy future."
Cinema Verde is available through one-day passes ($5), a monthly pass ($10) or at an annual membership of $60 at CinemaVerde.org.
