About the Filmmakers
Louisa Jones and Vladimir Morozov are two creatives who became friends through three years of documenting climate protest in the UK. They coordinated the multi-camera livestreaming team that broadcast some of Extinction Rebellion UK’s biggest moments and worked on pop-up indie media channel, COP26.tv, throughout the 2021 Glasgow climate conference. Their boots-on-the-ground footage has been featured by news channels from the BBC to Al Jazeera Arabic. This is their first documentary film.
