Radical Imagination: Responding to an Environmental Crisis in Motion
The Engagement Lab is thrilled to partner with Bright Lights Screening Series, Emerson Office of Sustainability, and Emerson VMA to co-present "Future Imaginaries: Visions for Environmental Justice," part of the brand new Transforming Narratives for Environmental Justice initiative.
Join us on Thursday, October 5 at 7pm for a collection of short documentaries curated by filmmaker, artist, educator, and ELab Faculty Fellow Homa Sarabi.
Radical Imagination: Responding to an Environmental Crisis in Motion
The world around us is changing, the climate of our planet, our immediate environment, and our future as the inhabitants of Earth. In this curated collection, each film serves as a powerful catalyst for change. From stunning cinematography that captures the wonders of nature to heartfelt narratives that expose environmental injustices, these documentaries invite you to explore the delicate balance between humanity and the planet, examining the varied but urgent environmental challenges we are facing.
This program is curated by Homa Sarabi, a filmmaker, artist, educator, and ELab Faculty Fellow. Discussion with filmmakers and Emerson Professor, ecologist, and ELab Faculty Fellow Jon Honea, moderated by Homa Sarabi to follow.
