In a world where the old stories of domination over nature no longer hold, we stand at a crossroads: regeneration or collapse. What will be (y)our legacy?
The legacy we leave behind will be shaped by the strength of our community.
Join us for the closing weekend of the All Living Things Environmental Film Festival’s 6th edition in Mumbai, as we turn Versova into our festival precinct. It’s a weekend-long celebration packed with stellar cinema, immersive art experiences, workshops, filmmaker Q&A, a sustainable marketplace, delicious food and drinks. There is something for everyone, so bring your family, bring your friends and meet the kind of community you’ve been waiting for.
