Community Screening: ACTionism
Inspire. Connect. Act Collectively
ACTionism is a film about the art of finding your people to take collective action. About collectively moving from passive consumers to active citizens. A story centered around doing things with others, not to others.
The film follows Ellie Meredith on a journey from anxiety to action.
“School was a tricky time for me—as a neurospicy human, I hated being stuck in four walls all day. The mounting pressure of exams and anxiety became too much, and I crawled inside myself.
Add to that cocktail a rising sense of climate anxiety, and it all felt completely overwhelming. I kept thinking about what I could do.
The question itself was rooted in uncertainty about my own future—a future that felt like it was being mapped out for me. But what I really wanted was to get stuck in, to find my people. To feel less alone.
“I found myself drawn to the work of Re-Action. At a time when most of the actions I was told to take to “save the planet” felt like joyless personal sacrifices—buying a reusable coffee cup—this kind of action felt different.
It meant that there might be a way for me to take action alongside others, not as if I was on some solo mission to save the world.
And this film is the unraveling of where that led me next.”
We'll be holding a community screening of "Actionism' at Share Bristol on June 25th.
