Last weekend's annual Swanpool Environmental Film Festival at the Swanpool Cinema, a joint effort of BSFG, Swanpool Landcare and the Gecko CLaN, was a sell out event. Three thought provoking films - 'Polyfaces', 'Anthropocine' and 'Tarkine In Motion' - alternated with an excellent choice of presentations by inspirational guest speakers. Prof Kate Auty opened the festival and facilitated a Q&A session following the screening of 'Polyfaces' with its Co-Director Isaebella Doherty and Cinematographer Andreas Overdahl. Both Dr Kerryn Higgs' presentation ‘Collision Course: The Growth Delusion’ and Professor Michael Clarke's presentation ‘Ecological Literacy, ambivalence and inspiration’ were highly valued and greeted with hearty applause. Catering by Swanpool Catering Team volunteers sustained the audience during breaks which provided wonderful opportunities for audience members to both network and catch up with friends.
