As part of the temporary exhibition "Environmental Injustice - Indigenous Alternatives", which will run from 24 September 2021 to 21 August 2022, the Ciné-dimanche is back! Films addressing the climate emergency and the impact of environmental change on indigenous peoples and local communities will be screened throughout the exhibition.

Two countries on the fringes of our earth are making headlines because of climate change: Thule in Greenland, because the ice there is melting, and Tuvalu, because this Pacific island is one of the first countries to be threatened with extinction by rising sea levels. While for us, global warming only exists in the media, it completely changes the lives of the people of Thule and Tuvalu. The film shows how they have to give up their traditional way of life to face an uncertain future.

The common fate of two opposite regions of the world in the face of the climate emergency is addressed in this film by Matthias Von Gunten. Two works by indigenous artists reflect this idea in the exhibition "Environmental Injustice - Indigenous Alternatives".

This film is screened in collaboration with the Festival du Film Vert which takes place from 04 September to 17 October 2021.

Film in English with French subtitles.
