ALT EFF: An environment film festival that’s an ode to all that breathes
Live MintAs smog-hit Delhi fights to breathe, the story of two brothers setting out to save the city’s black kites will be soaring high on many screens this week. Shaunak Sen’s Cannes and Sundance award-winning documentary All that Breathes about these birds is one of the 55 films to be shown as part of the All Living Things Environment Film Festival. “The environmental crisis is the most pressing issue of our times.There is no medium as powerful as film to reach and touch millions of people,” says Kunal Khanna, who started ALT EFF along with co-founders Neha Shrestha and Rudransh Mathur. Since all three of them were living in Panchgani, a biodiversity hotspot in the Western Ghats, they started ALT EFF as a volunteer-driven, virtual festival of films that discussed critical environmental issues. In 2020, Shrestha and Mathur’s design firm Network Of Creative Thinkers won the India’s Best Design Award for the branding of ALT EFF, and has just won the 2022 award as a brand design studio.
