A Watch Party is an easy, friendly and community-oriented way to explore the big issues (cough cough, climate collapse) without jargon or judgement.

We get it - you're itching to do something positive for the world around you but you're tired after a long day of work, school or managing the home. This bucket is a place to start: because the good fight begins in the mind first. In this bucket of films, we nudge you to think about what activism means to you, and to give you some inspiration: here's what it looks like for people all over the world!

The modern world has been designed to keep us siloed, separating us from each other and from nature. But there's plenty of evidence that time spent in nature (and with community) is the remedy for our over-stimulated, technology-heavy lives. When possible, some people are able to find that balance for themselves. Cheggit.

Yes, we're going through collapse, but joy is ever-palpable, alive-ness to be found everywhere around us. Follow your curiosity, revel in the symbolic, find meaning when you scratch below the surface.

Take a closer look at what's around you: do you see beauty and value in what was once vilified or ignored? This bucket nudges us towards rediscovering empathy and questioning systems while acknowledging the realities of native species, peoples and geographies.

Put on those reading glasses and dig in: because beyond the flashy headlines lie complicated stories, where villains and heroes exchange places in a matter of seconds. Watch these films with a critical eye, begin an investigation into your own mind: does what you see resonate with what you know? Are various identities and issues intersecting in ways you didn't think possible?

Let's call a spade a spade - we're globally entrenched in systems of production that have led us to a point of collapse. There's no point sugarcoating it - we're in the sixth extinction and, likely, you're feeling upset, stuck or helpless. Well, you're not alone. Communities all over the world are grappling with the ripple effects of climate change that manifest in vastly different ways.

All around us are things that elicit disbelief, disillusionment and awe; the reality we're living in IS absurd; these films poke at the odd-shaped corners of our reality and in doing so, make catharsis possible.

Curation for 15-16 years and under.
