General information
"ALTER NATIVES: Towards a sustainable future" is a documentary project directed by Agustí Corominas and Juan del Río.
This is a collaborative film that seeks to show initiatives of socio-ecological transition from a proactive approach. Diverse experiences that provide resposes to the world-wide systemic crisis (energetic, economical, ecological, social, cultural and epistemic) that we are suffering.
ALTER NATIVES aims to be a tool for those people and organisations that are committed to a fairer and more sustainable world. Audiovisual language has a great impact and potential. However, there is hardly any quality documentary addressing this issue from a systemic perspective, and those that exist have been made from an Anglosaxon perspective.
This project wants to support and strengthen existing transformative experiences, show their interrelationships and, in short, inspire people to take action.
Main features and goals of the crowdfunding campaign
The key features of the documentary film are that:
- It starts from a context of systemic crisis and of potential collapse
- It presents experiences of socioecological transition in a broad sense: energy, economy, food, education and governance
- It focuses on transformation processes at ecological, economic, social and cultural levels - also of regeneration and resilience building
- Transition is addressed both from external (collective) and internal (personal) perspectives
- It analises the itinerary undertaken by initiatives from the experiences of its participants
- Initiatives are presented as an ensemle, avouring their sense of interdependence and unity through the transition process
- It reflects a vision of possibility that integrates the importance of celebration and learning
- It will show as wide a range of initiatives as possible, with differences in terms of scale, scope and location
In terms of treatment, the recording and realisation of the film will take into account the diversity of the initiatives shown (linguistic, of genre, age, urban/rural context, etc.).
With this crowdfunding campaign, we aim to cover an important part of the documentary's budget. We also count on receiving funds from public and private organisations that want to commit to the goals of this project.
Why this is important
We live in times of economic, social and ecological uncertainty and of a potential collapse. Multiple planetary systems that are essential to life — such as the climate, soils and oceans — are being severely altered. At the same time, socioeconomic inequality rates continue to grow, generating more poverty and exclusion.
Humanity, who is primarily responsible of this situation, is facing its biggest threat ever. This great transition is taking place: there is no way back and no time to waste.
In this context, multiple initiatives and projects are emerging, searching for ways of living that are more equitative and caring, in tune with planetary limits. Working at different levels and in different fields, they seek to transform this systemic crisis into an opportunity to redesign our culture. More than ever, we need to give visibility to these stories whose main characters are ordinary people like you and me.
This is what has inspired us to develop the idea for this documentary. It is a project addressed to all those that share our vision and want to help in giving voice and relevance to initiatives of eco-social transformation in our context.
The critical mass of transformative initiatives has to grow in order to achieve an impactful process of socio-ecological transition. We need to connect, to learn from one another, and to inspire a significant part of the population. This is why we believe that a documentary like this is essential.
