The Flight

What will the future of our planet look like? Will the valleys be green? Where will the waste go? What will it mean for our children?

Climate change as many say is already a part of our reality. It will assert an even greater presence in our children’s lives. The Flight is an animated short film that looks at the possibility of two very different worlds. They are both defined by the choices we make- for us, and for our children.
