Wild Things

WILD THINGS is a timely film about those on the frontline fighting the war against fossil fuels, the logging of our forests and the inaction of leaders to address climate change. In addition the film explores Australia’s rich history of environmental activism which has saved rivers, reefs, rainforests and sacred places across the nation. The activists are ordinary people of all ages taking extraordinary action.

WILD THINGS will inspire a new generation of grass roots activists to make a difference and create a sustainable future. The film profiles particularly young women involved in climate action.

Our film will inspire audiences to believe that every individual has the power to make an impact and bring about change. The films focus is on inspiring people-particularly young people to take climate action at a community level.

The film WILD THINGS is optimistic. As well as showcasing present day climate and environment heroes we hear intimate and revelatory stories from past campaigns which will shed light on the history of the Australian environment movement.

The film will be used to inspire a new generation of climate action leaders.

The documentary showcases the commitment of the School Strike 4 Climate, Save The Tarkine Rainforest and Frontline Action On Coal.

These organisations are concerned about global warming and are urging action to halt climate change.

Our Impact campaign will encompass social media, online short form content, commissioned opinion pieces and screenings to inspire debate.

360 Degree Films has partnered with Cool Australia and produced curriculum materials addressing the film’s content to stimulate debate and the search for solutions in the classroom.

The Sunrise Project, Hamer Fund and Garry White Foundation have supported the development of some curriculum materials.

Following viewing the film audiences will have a higher value for frontline action and for environmental groups.

Young people will be inspired to become climate leaders.

Parents with children who are concerned about the environment and climate change may have more empathy for environmental activists.

Viewers may want to join their local environment group and engage in climate action and creating a more sustainable future.

They will be interested to find out more about renewable energy and in particular options for renewable power within their own community.

If viewers do not have time to become active themselves they may be inspired to donate to an environment group who is working to bring about change.
