Deep Dive: Wild Things (2020)

Film Lens

Wild Things
WILD THINGS follows a new generation of environmental activists who are mobilizing against powerful forces to combat climate change. The film captures their non-violent tactics, such as chaining themselves to coal trains and sitting in the canopies of threatened rainforests. These activists operate in a context marked by drought, fire, and floods, demonstrating their determination to make an impact on environmental issues. The documentary also features 16-year-old Greta Thunberg, whose actions inspire school students to demand action against global warming through national strikes. By connecting with past campaigns, WILD THINGS shows that traditional methods of activism remain relevant in the fight for a sustainable future.
