Film Screening: Fire, Water, Earth, Air
As the climate crisis rages, four Nordic communities come together in solidarity to find collective solutions. CAFx invites you to a film screening and a conversation with the film’s director, Phie Ambo, and landscape architect Anna Aslaug Lund.
As wildfires rage, seas rise, storms intensify, and the landscape transforms, the forces of nature speak - both as warning and guidance. From near and far, neighbors begin to listen to nature’s signs - and to the need for a new language.
Fire, Water, Earth, Air follows four Nordic communities that come together in solidarity to find collective solutions to the challenges that lie ahead. The film blends everyday life with science, showing how old ties to nature and to one another can guide us through a changing world.
The film is in Danish with English subtitles. The conversation after the film will be in English
After the film, CAFx invites you to a conversation with the film’s director, Phie Ambo, and landscape architect Anna Aslaug Lund, an expert in the relationships between rising sea levels, landscapes, architecture, and the nature-based climate adaptation strategies we can employ.
