Our film series features four timely films exploring the issues surrounding the environment and climate change:

  • Jan 23: The Economics of Happiness. Far from the old institutions of power, people are starting to forge a very different future.
  • Feb 27: The Dark Side of Chocolate. Is the chocolate we eat produced with the use of child labour and trafficked children? Award-winning Danish journalist decides to investigate the rumours.
  • Mar 26: The Business of Gold. Documents one struggle, the resistance of the Mayan-mam people against the Canadian company, Goldcorp Inc.
  • Apr 23: Schooling the World. Calls for a “deeper dialogue” between cultures, suggesting we have at least as much to learn as to teach, and that these ancient sustainable societies may harbour knowledge that is vital for our own survival.
