Oscar-winning filmmaker Kartiki Gonsalves to be part of jury at All Living Things Environmental Film Festival

Filmmaker Kartiki Gonsalves, who won an Oscar along with producer Guneet Monga for her documentary The Elephant Whisperers (2022), has been elected to the jury of All Living Things Environmental Film Festival.

On joining the festival as the jury, Kartiki expressed, “People across the world should see these films. Every person should see these films. Students, as well as adults, should watch because then they can see how the world is deteriorating slowly, and I think that in itself is a powerful motive to inspire change.”

The festival will take place in a hybrid, decentralised model from December 1 to 10. It will feature a curated selection of 62 compelling films, encompassing Indian and international titles across various genres including documentaries, short films, fictional films all centred around various aspects and themes of environment, conservation and sustainability. The lineup includes 39 India Premieres promises to captivate and inspire audiences, offering a unique perspective on our planet's most pressing environmental challenges.

The founder of the festival Kunal Khanna added, “We are extremely excited as we take ALT EFF to our audiences across all states of India, in partnership with our on-ground screening partners. The climate crisis is here now, and will impact each one of us in a myriad of ways; we have therefore decided to decentralise the festival and provide opportunities for audiences across the country to engage, learn, and be inspired to act.”
