When the land burns, what do we do next? This urgent and visually striking environmental spotlight brings together three powerful films confronting climate change not as theory — but as lived reality. From music-fueled protest to deeply personal grief and frontline Indigenous resistance, these stories ask what responsibility we hold when crisis hits home. Featured Films: Climate Crisis — Directed by Peter Cameron-Inglis Set in the fire-ravaged Deadman’s Valley on Secwépemc lands, this electrifying music video confronts climate denialism head-on and calls for mobilization at a wartime scale to reduce carbon emissions. Embers (Surrey Premiere) — Directed by Trixie Pacis After losing everything to wildfire, aerial artist Sasha Galitzki performs among scorched forests and receding glaciers, transforming grief into breathtaking environmental advocacy. Premiered at the Banff Centre Mountain Film Festival and screened at Whistler Film Festival and Vancouver International Mountain Film Festival. The Fire in Our Hearts (BC Premiere) — Directed by Josias Tschanz As wildfires threaten a remote region of British Columbia, the Cheslatta Carrier Nation and Southside residents choose to stay and defend their land — turning catastrophe into a powerful act of sovereignty and collective survival. Together, these films reveal that when home is on fire, resistance becomes necessary — and hope becomes a choice. Panel: From Witness to Action How do we move from documenting disaster to demanding change? This timely conversation brings filmmakers and community voices together to explore cinema’s role in environmental advocacy, accountability, and mobilization.
