As global leaders convene for the COP28 UN Climate Conference, we're reminded of the urgency and importance of climate action. But at LandxSea, we also believe in the power of community and connection. That's why we're inviting you to not just a screening but also a festive gathering.

Join us for a Screening + Q&A and Stay for a Festive Drink!

Dive into the compelling world of FINITE: The Climate of Change, a film that takes you inside the grassroots movement against global environmental challenges. Explore the intense battles and unwavering spirits of communities up against the colossal forces of the fossil fuel industry. This compelling film unfolds real stories of determination, activism, and the formidable spirit of resilience amidst climate crises. 

“A masterpiece: powerful, inspiring, uplifting. Please watch it.” ~ George Monbiot

"A persuasive and powerful case against climate crisis fatigue" ~ The Guardian

FINITE unfolds as an extraordinary insider’s view of direct action in the climate movement. In Germany, concerned citizens step forward to save an ancient forest from one of Europe’s largest coal mines. They form an unlikely alliance with a frustrated community in rural England who are forced into action to protect their homes from a new opencast coal mine. The film is a raw, authentic, and emotional insight into the fierce David and Goliath battle between frontline communities, activists, and fossil fuel corporations. Learn more at finite-film.com
