BFI FAN: Green Hour is a series of events for UK film exhibitors focusing on environmental sustainability.


Join us online on Tuesday 17 June from 12:00 - 13:00 for a session on Igniting Local Climate Action.

Want to deepen the impact of your programming? To move beyond general narratives of climate action towards the issues that really impact your audiences and communities? Discover how film can spark real-world collaboration and embedded action in your community.

In this session, we’ll be joined by T A P E Collective to hear how they blend cinema with urban foraging workshops, and Curzon Cinema to learn about their partnership with Sustainable Clevedon on a 2-day festival uniting cinema, action and community organising.

This session will spark conversations on how we:
  • Convert audiences into environmental champions
  • Connect with the climate movement in your community
  • Design programming that drives tangible change.
