Climate Fest: Film Double Feature at Dream City

This year’s Climate Fest hosts a double feature of two short films with powerful messages. The first, Born Curious, explores the life of an outdoor enthusiast and explorer born in Queens. Director Julia de Guzman describes the film as “comedic and lyrical, tense and heart- warming and will inspire even the most timid among us to live braver and bolder every day.”

The second film, Green Buffalo, follows members of the Lower Sioux Indian Community from southwest Minnesota as they seek to build affordable housing, cut greenhouse gas emissions, and foster community resilience using hempcrete, a revolutionary building material.

The films start at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 25, at Dream City, one of the recent Climate Action Grant awardees that has used the funding to install energy efficient equipment in its commercial kitchen utilized by local entrepreneurs as a business incubator. In between screenings, learn more about related efforts locally from United Action for Youth and the Great Plains Action Society.
