About Event

​Have you ever noticed that the economic system that is running our societies has a very narrow focus: We must “grow the GDP”, i.e. make more money, no matter the cost. But rather than improving our lives, this logic is now tearing our societies and our planet apart.

​Can there be a viable political alternative?

​Join us for the Canada Premiere of Purpose - A Wellbeing Economies Film.

​The film follows two individuals who develop ground-breaking political projects in order to shift our economic systems — away from endless GDP growth, towards wellbeing for people and planet. They envision a world in which we no longer serve the economy, but the economy serves us.

​You can read more about the movie here: https://purpose.film/

​Cost / Donations

​We want to make sure the screening is accessible to everybody who is interested, but if you can, please consider a donation that we will then send to the filmmakers. The film is self-financed and produced by Omnipolis Media (an independent film, audio, and story production company) in collaboration with Florida Film. All proceeds will be reinvested in further distributing the film.

​To avoid having to set up a Payment System (and give 5% of the donation to them) you can just bring cash at the time of the event, or we will share E-Transfers details later on.
