As the US approaches its 2024 election on 5th November, decisions that affect the environment have never been more critical. LandxSea presents a special weekend of films exploring how unchecked development and political influence impact our ecosystems and local communities. These documentaries reflect the urgent need to stand up for environmental protections and sustainable practices.

Organisers of the LandxSea Film Festival in Montrose are celebrating today, after official figures revealed record audiences of over 1600 admissions across a spectacular weekend of sell-out films for its second inspiring edition of environmental storytelling. Plans are already afoot for the festival to return in 2025.
