Who are Your Best Fest Friends?
The One Earth Film Festival is too good to keep to yourself. Yes, films are focused on the environment, but they also include general interest themes that your friends might appreciate, too.
Peruse the schedule and invite your BFFs (Best Fest Friends). Bringing friends to the Fest is a great way to expose folks in your circle to issues that are important to them as well.
Bonus: take a photo with your group of 3 or more at a Festival screening, post it to social media with the tag #OEFFMoment, and you will be entered in a drawing to win an in-home screening of a One Earth film, including the popcorn!
