Climate Film Festival & Narrative Change Summit

Climate Film Festival returns to New York during Climate Week NYC with a citywide program of bold films, premieres, conversations, and special events exploring how climate change is reshaping our world—and how stories can help reshape what comes next. Across narrative, documentary, experimental, animated, and youth cinema, the festival brings together filmmakers, artists, audiences, advocates, and industry leaders for screenings that move beyond familiar climate narratives and open up new ways of seeing, feeling, and acting. The festival culminates in the Narrative Change Summit, a full day dedicated to the power and practice of climate storytelling. Filmmakers, funders, brands, nonprofits, scientists, cultural institutions, and media leaders come together to share new work, examine what changes minds and culture, and build collaborations across sectors. Part film festival, part ideas forum, and part creative convening, the Climate Film Festival and Narrative Change Summit offer a cultural home for climate storytelling during the biggest climate gathering in the world.
