About the Film:

Renowned photographer James Balog (prominently featured in “Chasing Ice”) uses his camera to reveal how environmental change is affecting the lives of everyday Americans. Following the four classical elements—air, earth, fire and water—to frame his journey, Balog explores wildfires, hurricanes, sea level rise, coal mining, and the changes in the air we breathe. He takes it further by examining the effects of the fifth element—the human element—to tell an urgent story while giving inspiration for a more balanced relationship between humanity and nature.

The 2019 One Earth Film Fest is from March 1st-March 10th and features a variety of environmental film showings throughout the Chicago area. The theme this year is “All In”. The Festival invites you, your family and friends to go All In for the planet. See the full line-up of powerful, solution-oriented films. Discover community action partners who can help you plug into projects, large and small.
