About The Festival
The Arcadia International Environmental Film Festival, a non-for-profit initiative, will be launched mid 2012 simultaneously in over 25 major cites worldwide. We plan on screening at least 15 movies, with additional short environmental documentaries. The focus of the festival will be on environmental protection, food security, social inequalities, climate change, pollution and activism. The aim is to enlighten and empower individuals and communities globally to take actions, together, to live a more sustainable lifestyle.

Working Together
To put this immensely important project together requires working together on this shared vision with all concerned, from responsible businesses to environmental organizations, right up to individual commitments. We require resources to bring into being this festival and with your financial support, we will go ahead to make this happen.
The Film Festival will work hand-in-hand with leading environmental organizations worldwide by providing an opportunity for these organizations to receive a substantial part of the funds generated from film ticket sales. In buying their tickets to see films, movie goers from all around the world will be supporting the great work of these organizations. Arcadia believes in working together for this shared vision. This festival is of crucial importance for socially responsible businesses as they have now an incredible opportunity to showcase their great products and services by supporting one or more events.
The project has the support of leading environmentalists such as Indira Naidoo, Tim Silverwood and David Kennett from Australia. Other various environmental organizations are whole heartedly supporting us, including Yann Arthus-Bertrand, from France, with the screening of his award-winning documentary HOME.
