This event will be the culmination of a grassroots effort to find and share stories of our environment and our role within it. Open submissions for short films -- everyone can be a filmmaker, and we encourage all kinds of work, whether long-term projects or pieces made over a weekend. Share your story, your community, your environment with us.
