              Climate Realities: a participatory session

              09:30 - 13:00 Friday 28th Mar 2025 / 210 min

              Join us for an interactive session on how to strengthen climate storytelling.

              Throughout the festival, the Climate Story Lab team has been gathering insights from funders, distributors, filmmakers, and industry leaders to understand the evolving landscape of climate storytelling and industry transformations. These conversations will shape our collective discussion on how the Nordic film industry can advance meaningful climate action.

              Building on the CPH:DOX Summit discussions, a panel of filmmakers will also explore the intersection of climate storytelling and human rights.

              This session synthesizes the climate conversations at the festival and offers the opportunity to contribute to the future of climate storytelling in Nordic media, exploring both creative and practical pathways for impact.

              Schedule:

              09.30 – 10:45

              Panel 1: New Climate Narratives

              This panel explores innovative storytelling approaches that push the boundaries of climate narratives. The featured filmmakers blend Afrofuturism with climate themes and employ nuanced  impact producing strategies as organizing tools. The discussion examines how emergent narrative forms can mobilize communities, challenge dominant frames, and create new avenues for climate engagement across diverse audiences.

              Speakers:

              1. Maisha Maene (Director, “Spaceman in Kongo”)
              2. Sabrina Gordon (Producer, “Seeds”)

              Panel 2: Frontier of Climate Storytelling

              This panel explores emerging approaches to climate storytelling that move beyond conventional narratives. Speakers will discuss innovative formats, Indigenous perspectives that decolonize climate narratives. The conversation will examine how storytelling can represent more-than-human perspectives and temporal expansions while engaging audiences as active participants in imagining post-carbon futures.

              Speakers:

              1. Michele Kranot (Director, “The Garden”) – Expertise in innovative animation techniques
              2. Violeta Ayala (Director, “Jaguaress”) – Perspective on Indigenous approaches to storytelling

              The Climate Story Lab Nordic is part of a global series of labs initiated by Doc Society. Since 2023 we’ve been developing a platform to support film & media makers and film industry professionals around the craft of climate storytelling and industry transformations to support capacity building towards climate action. Last year we supported 9 film projects, held an industry conversation at CPH:DOX, launched an evolving collection of essays on climate storytelling and launched a pledge.
