Critical Degrees - A Selection Of Short Films On Climate Change

Shorts On Tap and Medact present: CRITICAL DEGREES - A SELECTION OF SHORT FILMS ON CLIMATE CHANGE on Tuesday, December 8th at BFI Southbank South Block, Belvedere Rd.

As world leaders gather in Paris to discuss a new possible agreement to reduce the threat of climate change, we're inviting young people to join us on an exploration of this critical issue, at the foremost institution for film, the BFI Southbank on Tuesday, December 8th. We will present a selection of short films and documentaries, followed by a panel discussion, featuring special guests and experts. We’re targeting this event towards students and young people, as we feel that this is an issue that has a significant impact on future generations, so it is important

that these generations have an opportunity to share their ideas and opinions.


Doors open at 2:15pm (BFI NFT2 screen)
Films screening start at 3pm
Show ends approximately at 4:45pm
