DIRECTOR: Mariana Díaz, Thibaud Sauvageon

SYNOPSIS: To what extent do our culture and the place where we live determine our view of science? Do scientists work the same way in any country and region of the world?
Mariana and Thibaud, a French-Mexican couple with a passion for science and travel, are embarking on a somewhat unusual adventure in 2018: a trip around science. With a backpack and camera in hand, they take us on a tour of eight countries to meet scientists from disciplines as diverse as their cultures.
From Canada to Panama, through universities like Berkeley or the University of Havana, this trip has completely changed the way they look at science and society... Will yours change too?

THE RACE TO SAVE THE WORLD
• 2020
DIRECTOR: Joe Gantz
COUNTRY: USA
RUNTIME: '102
SYNOPSIS: The Race to Save The World follows the passion and commitment of regular everyday people who are devoting their lives to fighting climate change.
They are climate change activists from all walks of life, from ages 16 to 72, risking prison time, their families and relationships and even their lives to make their voices heard.
The subjects in this film aren't putting their heads in the sand, or waiting for someone else to do something, they’re in the trenches doing anything they can to try to turn this around.
Where most climate change films tell people how bad things are and how much worse they will get (all true) and try to frighten people to get them involved, the subjects in The Race to Save The World will inspire viewers with their unwavering determination to do all that they can to fight for a livable future.
