The Core Team

In 2020, the trio joined forces on a Climate Change campaign, with a shared belief in the power of our craft and the role films can play in making the world a better place. When we united, we knew something special was happening. And so birthed the commitment to combining our skills and efforts to fight injustices together in this decisive decade, and hopefully in hindsight seen as “The Green 20’s”. We’re not business partners, we’re friends. We care for each other and for our damaged planet. We put heart in what we do. We believe in solidarity and connections. And we’re more interested in social & environmental justice than we are in profits.

Our Statement

We support initiatives and people who work for a life in harmony with natural resources and a simultaneous reduction of social injustices.

Our society is at a turning point. Our mission is to cinematically articulate the social and ecological transformation of the zeitgeist in the 20s. In doing so, we focus on civil society and different forms of activism in the field of climate protection and social justice. We also support and partner with NGOs, companies and initiatives from the sectors of sustainable mobility, citizen energy, ecological and regional agriculture, up-cycling / recycling, sustainable infrastructure, democracy & civil participation, nature conservation, anti racism and feminism. It is important to us to understand and communicate the larger societal contexts.

Our values and beliefs are strongly aligned with post-growth theory and thus we are aligned with models such as Donut Economies and Regional Circular Economies. We believe that climate protection leads to a better life for all.

Less consumption leads to the values of sharing and embeds the significance of community. Less growth and development means deceleration. Sustainable mobility equates healthy and liveable cities and urban environments. Transitioning from disposable culture into patterns of repairing means empowerment and a localised independence. Ideals of feminism and decolonialisation equates more inclusivity and equality.

There are many people who share and are committed to this positive vision of an inclusive and climate-friendly future.

Together we want to present this vision and make it accessible to all.

In solidarity,

The Green Twenties Collective
