All Living Things Environmental Film Festival (ALT EFF), the world’s largest decentralised film festival, is back for its 6th edition with groundbreaking cinema that reframes our gaze toward stories of renewal, resilience, and hope.
As part of the Kolkata leg of the festival, Veditum India Foundation and Kolkata Change Makers (KCM) are partnering with ALT EFF to help manage the film programming along with the venue partners The Red Bari.
The film programming will take place at The Red Bari on the evening of 13th December (Saturday), and tickets for the film screenings can be purchased at this link: https://urbanaut.app/spot/alteff-kolkata
