Where are we headed? Across two programmes filmmakers explore that question and many others that follow. How do we act when the world is burning or drowning, how can film art contribute and can fantasies lead the way to possible futures?
The filmmakers in these two programmes are utilising a wide variety of strategies and exciting means of expression to put their points across, not letting the seriousness of the issue or anything but the imagination be the limit. Whether it is magnificent documentaries, striking animations, imaginative science fiction, poignant art films, or an altogether new hybrid, these passionate films show that art is constructive, if only to make you smile, possibly with tears in your eyes.
