Event Description

Join us for a special screening of 2040, the inspiring documentary from award-winning director Damon Gameau. Rather than focusing on what’s going wrong, 2040 explores what the future could look like if we embraced the best solutions already available to improve our planet—and scaled them into the mainstream.

Structured as a visual letter to his 4-year-old daughter, Damon blends traditional documentary with dramatized sequences and high-end visual effects to create a vision board of how these solutions could regenerate the world for future generations.
