Living in the Future's Past What Kind of Future Would You Like to See?
Academy Award-Winner Jeff Bridges shares the screen with scientists and profound thinkers going beyond politics and borders to look under the hood of humanity, revealing eye-opening concepts about ourselves and our past, providing the keys to a better future.
The film shows how no one can predict how major changes might emerge from the spontaneous actions of the many. How energy takes many forms as it moves through and animates everything. How, as we come to understand our true connection to all there is, we will need to redefine our expectations, not as what we will lose, but what we might gain by preparing for something different.
Winner of Best Feature Documentary at the Amsterdam Film Festival and the IndieFEST Film Awards.

Patriarchy, capitalism, and fossil fuels are unsustainable.
To claim that humanity cannot abandon the lifestyle it has built on fossil fuels is not true.
We have less than 12 years to solve the climate crisis or face a climate catastrophe.
The time for debate is over.
We are out of time.
We must act.
