ORGANIZE YOUR OWN SCREENING

Be the Change is an upbeat, 55-minute film that makes the case for “living lightly”, not as a guilt-driven sacrifice, but as a joyous celebration of life that encourages us to take stock of what we really value and wish to see more of in our lives.

If you would like to share this hopeful message with your family, friends and community, please consider hosting a screening/discussion in your town, neighbourhood or living room. For more information, call David Chernushenko at 613-730-0870 or email us.
