Nature is watching you. So come to the Green Eye Festival and be part of the effort to preserve it
The fourth Green Eye Festival, dedicated to the key environmental issues of the present day, will be held from October 26 to 27 in the beautiful surroundings of the Arsen House of Art in Šibenik
During the two days of the festival, visitors will be able to watch four award-winning documentaries and listen to two panel discussions, along with socializing and an accompanying music program.
The Green Eye Festival is organized by the Krka National Park in order to identify global topics of environmental protection at the local level and encourage people to think about them and act. In Croatia, this is a rare positive example of how a public institute involved in nature protection can present an ecological theme to an audience through attractive and accessible film content.
"The Green Eye Festival is not only an event, but also an opportunity to create lasting connections and partnerships between people who share the same passion for the preservation of nature. We want to start a dialogue, make visitors think, and, most importantly, encourage them to take action", said the director of the Krka National Park, Nella Slavica, and added: "Through a series of inspiring films and panel discussions, we will discover how film and the media can help spread awareness about nature preservation, and encourage sustainable practices and positive change in our communities."
This year's edition of the festival is dedicated to climate change and the role of film and the media in shaping our awareness of the importance of protecting nature and the environment. On the first day, visitors will be able to watch three documentaries.
The festival opens with the inspiring documentary Common Ground, which explores the route towards ecological food cultivation and the restoration of our health and the environment. At 5 pm, viewers will be able to watch Deep Rising, a story of geopolitical, scientific, and corporate intrigue, which explores the world energy crisis and its impact on the deep ocean floor, so crucial to our survival. At 7:00 pm, All That Breathes is on the schedule, an Oscar-nominated documentary about two brothers who dedicated their lives to the fight to protect black harriers, magnificent birds of prey crucial to the ecosystem of New Delhi.
On the second day of the Green Eye Festival, at 11:15, environmental activist Zoe Lucas will transport visitors to the rich ecosystem of Sable Island, in the film Geographies of Solitude, revealing incredible stories about nature there.
The Festival program also includes two panel discussions, where numerous renowned experts will discuss climate change and the legislative and strategic frameworks adopted by various management structures to reduce their negative impact. There will also be discussion about the relationship between the media and environmental protection, the activism of famous people in apostrophizing environmental topics, and the technology that allows us to have a detailed insight into the world that surrounds us.
Join us at the Green Eye Festival so together we can spread awareness about the importance of nature preservation.
